Stone cold alive

Detective Stannard Jackson (St Jack to his friends) is haunted by a recurring dream. He is plagued by the memory of Dr. Loren Parlous and his associates whom he holds responsible for the death of his son, Russell two decades earlier; and troubled by unanswered questions remaining from the more recent investigation of Dr. Parlous' murder. When two young boys are found mutilated in the same way as Dr. Parlous and St Jack's son, his dream becomes dread and a familiar chapter in his life-story begins. Taunted by the killer with notes and a cipher, St Jack must overcome a deadly cat and mouse game of good versus evil that is designed to push him toward the edges of sanity. Filled with mystery, intrigue and gripping suspense, this engrossing novel will captivate readers long after the final page has turned.
