Vengence Road by Rick Mofina, Mira $29.99
There’s much more to the particularly disturbing murder of prostitute Bernice Hogan than police are letting on and journalist Jack Gannon is determined to discover the truth.
He also wants to know what happened to her friend Jolene Peller who went missing on the night of the murder, just when she was about to leave town to start a new life.
Gannon’s instincts are spot on. Police appear to suspect one of their own, the heroic Karl Styebeck who’s famous for saving a family from the burning house.
But this story could prove to be the undoing of Buffalo’s finest crime reporter. He’s forced to go it alone, digging deep into the Styebeck family’s buried past, with increasing urgency, as more and more girls are found dead.
This is the first Jack Gannon novel from thriller writer Rick Mofina, and it’s a ripper, ten out ten for intensity.
