Book Description
Made To Be Broken begins with a tortuous scream from the shadows of his past. PI Ross Malone is plunged headfirst into the depths of obsession where a twisted smile could mean a strangled neck for a lost teenager searching for a sense of belonging. Ross needs to find her before that place the teen is looking for comes with a headstone. The case distracts him from his relationship problems with Dr. Susan Abilene. Scenic upstate New York provides the battleground where Ross searches for the girl and dodges the vengeance of The Master Brotherhood where depravity is a requirement of membership. Years later, Ross is shoved into the middle of a family crisis from his significant only. Once again, terror stalks that teenager of years ago. A family friend seeks out the detective and spins a tale of a mysterious disappearance that could very well be just a vacation from reality. Then again, if Ross Malone doesn't get there in time it could mean the final walk towards a future of horrific evil.
