Book Description
The death of someone is always a tragedy. But death after death of several unrelated older people in the peaceful town of West Port, Mississippi at the hand of an unknown assailant sets off a state of alarm bordering on panic. When it is apparent that a serial killer dwells among the gentle folk, it is not only a cause for intense law enforcement intervention but also a baffling mystery. What is the motivation? Given the near poverty level of the earlier victims, the motive was not money. Investigators noted that although several homicides occurred right after the first of the month, some victims' benefit checks lay in plain sight. Could it be family matters? Maybe, but that explanation did not apply to all of the murders. Sexual attacks were highly questionable until later when at least one attack almost certainly appeared to be sexual. But it was not. Like an avenging ghost, Chief Detective Bird follows the trail of victims, noting one major recurring clue. The final explosive ending points to an entirely different solution, one which would bring a close to the violence. Or would it?
