Baltimore Police Detective Kev Dixit is being stalked by a psychopath. He's also saving lives and solving crimes. And he's late for dinner.Dixit temporarily heads the Criminal Investigation Division, a real stress inducer. Aided by humorless partners and eccentric high school friends, he investigates two vexing cases. Spouses are found shot to death in their home. Murder-suicide is the obvious call, considering one spouse had just cleaned out the couple's joint accounts the day before. But all is not as it seems when Forensics takes a closer look at the victims' DNA. Later, Dixit and his assigned mentee investigate a car bombing. What kind of person would viciously murder a likeable gym rat?Oh, and that murder-suicide. It reminded Dixit of an earlier investigation, back when he was a mere newbie detective. One where he worked tirelessly to solve a string of increasingly vicious serial attacks on single women. One where he barely escaped with his life.______________________________________"A smartly plotted murder mystery set in Baltimore and filled with memorable, local characters.

The creator had become aware. He began to process thought in the midnight darkness of the void. He had no concept of time or dimension. He only knew that he existed. He was left alone in the dark void only with his thoughts. He did not understand what light was, but he was beginning to understand what loneliness was. His first emotions bordered on despair and sorrow. There was no concept of joy and happiness to build a foundation upon. Great storm clouds began to form with his rage. He searched for inner peace then took stock of his surroundings.
