Profile in the Shadows - Paperback

The scene starts in Canada forty years ago. The agitated animals warn of danger. The events leave us to wonder, "What is he up to?" The distant memory finds its way to haunt. There are hints of an intruder. When Jerry is reported missing by his son, information is collected. The first 48 hours after a disappearance are critical. Jerry has been missing since 2015.

The events that occurred up to this point are reviewed and examined in a new light. The sights, sounds, and smells hit the senses in vivid color. These scenes show information coming from the perpetrator and the police. But neither paints a full picture until the end. Financial crimes and hoaxes play a role, almost as often as a person goes missing.

Lawrence went missing in 2015. Lawrence was selling his business for two million dollars when he disappeared. A friend has a hunch that the disappearance of both men is interrelated. The police report says Lawrence's location is confidential and he can only be located through his wife. And Lawrence has never had a wife.

The serial killer weaves in and out of each story as a profile in the shadows. Clues show he was stalking all along. The mysteries interconnect and end with the final capture. Now that we know what he is up to, who was the real River Man?

This is true crime written in a mystery genre tone.

Discretion is advised for violence and sexual violence.
