Atlanta. 1963.

Three adolescent girls go missing. And a killer is on the loose.

Young Billy Tarwater, eleven years old at the time and infatuated with one of the girls, thirteen-year-old Cynthia Hudspeth, finds himself caught up in the drama and suspense of the kidnappings.

Fast forward to 1980. Tarwater, now an up-and-coming newspaperman, sets out to find the killer and free an innocent victim of injustice.

THE DEVIL YOU KNEW masterfully combines coming-of-age poignancy with the cliffhanging suspense of a noir thriller.

The reader is taken on a journey of twists and turns to an unexpected end.

Financially challenged paranormal investigators, Jack and Daisy Foley, check into the Tunie Hotel looking for Santa Anna's gold to save their internet program. They interfere with a local quilting group by taking up reserved rooms at the hotel, which makes Grace Howe, owner of Fabricadabra, very unhappy. The ghost hunters find the location of an old brothel under Butch Allman's Garage parking lot, which could be a key to the gold. After the owner of the garage is found dead, they break through the pavement with a jackhammer. Butch Allman was not an easy man to deal with and the town suspects he refused to pay a local gang, the Alamo Runners extortion money to keep his business intact.

When a second man is murdered, Nora finds there is a connection between the two men that no one else suspects, not even her boyfriend, Tuck Watson, who is investigating the case for the local police department. Tuck has other things on his mind. He would like for Nora to move in with him. Nora has trouble saying yes, even though she is in love with him.

Nora Alexander, the owner of the Tunie Hotel in Piney Woods, Texas, finds herself playing host to a team of ghost hunters in search of the ghost of Sam Houston and a lost chest of gold.

Top assassin Graham Turner walks a delicate line as he tries to secretly solve the mystery of his parents' "accidental" deaths. The truth is buried deep within a child's forgotten past and an organization that demands secrecy and absolute devotion. His main obstacle is William Allen, Graham's boss and legal guardian. A master of manipulation and control, William pits Graham and his brother Robert against one another like pawns on a chessboard. William's idea of justice is kill or be killed.

Just as Graham discovers the identity of his parents' murderer and sets out to exact his revenge, he falls in love and develops a conscience. Graham must choose between love or loyalty, forgiveness or revenge. In a world of gray, Graham must find the line between black and white, wrong and right.

Follow the parallel stories of Graham and his father, two assassins who become their own worst enemies. Book Links: Amazon | Goodreads | MitchellSKarnes.com
