Laura sees strings. Strings are memories people create during heightened emotional episodes. These strings are left behind on inanimate objects, creating a history that Laura can read. Not a bad skill to have for an antique appraiser. However, not all strings are good. When she bumps into a serial killer with twenty-three bloody strings attached to his knife, things become personal. Her best friend, Carol, is dating him. Laura suspects Carol is his next victim.

Seroje is a high-functioning autistic with a photographic memory. She has found a niche in mainstream society, hired as an investigator by OSLO, a watchdog company, because of her unique ability to observe, recall and report with a high degree of detail. But OSLO prefers well-balanced employees and, as a loner, she’s become a blip on their radar. So when quiet billionaire Craig Manor asks her out to dinner, she agrees, thinking to please her employers.

Banter used to be a hired gun until she teamed up with Detective Corey Van Baine. After solving a mass murder case and him figuring out who she really is, she’s forced into retirement. That’s short-lived when his department is stumped with a new killer. Is it a serial killer or another hired gun on a killing spree?

SJ Wilke has graduated from writing humorous articles for Information Technology trade rags to using her degree in Psychology and expertise in computers to create books with a psychological edge to delve into the world of murder, the supernatural, and that nice girl who just happens to be a gun-for-hire. She loves to make her characters as real as can be, drawing from the people she has met around the world and her own experiences. She is a world traveller and never knows where she’ll sit down with her laptop to write. Her three four-footed editors and critics (the cats) monitor her on a daily basis.
