The Manipulation Project
A Novel
Gruesome murders cast a pall over the playground of the powerful, rich, and famous.
Murders in peak tourist season are enough to drain the lifeblood from any beach town—none more so than the elite playground of Rehoboth Beach. When the mayor and police chief are confronted with two grisly murders, they enlist the help of local residents and retired FBI agents Chris Gordon and Vic Thompson to catch the killer. But every clue leads to more questions than answers. Outside help causes tension on the force, and Chris and Vic find themselves once again battling the inter-agency drama they thought they’d left behind. As the case makes national news and the pressure continues to rise, they begin to suspect that Rehoboth is just the tip of a gruesome iceberg.
Can they stop the killer before he strikes again?
Perfect for fans of James Patterson and Gregg Olsen, The Manipulation Project is a thrilling mystery that keeps readers guessing to the very end.
