Sinopsis

Forcing a rich man to make amends to the people he’s swindled draws British sleuth Patrick Dawlish into a case that leads from money to murder . . .   A financial scam isn’t Patrick Dawlish’s usual subject of investigation, but he finds himself playing Robin Hood at his wife’s urging when they—and many others—lose money investing in a company that has since gone broke. But it doesn’t take long for Dawlish to find himself on familiar ground, when he saves the company’s managing director, Mr. Galloway, from being poisoned to death.   Not wanting police involvement, the multi-millionaire convinces Dawlish that the attempted murder is a personal matter. A close friend has become an enemy. Galloway has few redeeming qualities, and Dawlish is content to sit back and see how events play out—until his wife is abducted and threatened. It’s the first shot in a war of nerves with the shady businessman that Dawlish has no intention of losing . . .

    Beth Danson was about twenty-five and, besides her deep auburn-brown hair and lovely face, she boasted an equally attractive body. He found himself captivated by the warm thrust of her breasts beneath the silk blouse. The clear milk of her flesh, at the “V” of her throat excited him in a strange way. When he thought of her as his wife, it was frightening. It was as though someone had tossed him a woman and expected him to just fall into the routine of marriage. It wouldn’t be hard to come to love this woman, but it would take awhile. Hell, he didn’t know her. She was a complete stranger who had suddenly told him they were married. There was nothing familiar about her; even the fingers that were softly working over his face were alien. (Summary by Blurb from the Front Flap!)

    Hitchhiker – You Can’t Escape What You Have Done 
    A Short Story 
    A storm is coming to the Mojave Desert—and something in it is watching. 
    Late at night on a desolate stretch of Interstate 15, travelers pass through the darkness without knowing what moves along the roadside. When a lone hitchhiker appears in the middle of a violent desert storm, the encounter seems like chance. But on this highway, chance has very little to do with what happens next. 
    Hank has spent his life drifting from one bad decision to another, leaving destruction in his wake. Now stranded between destinations and running from his past, he steps into a night where the rules of the world begin to shift. Strange figures emerge from the storm. Time bends. And the road itself feels alive—waiting, watching, judging. 
    As the desert becomes a place where reality and the supernatural blur, Hank is forced to confront forces that know far more about him than they should. Every mile pulls him deeper into something ancient, something patient, and something that does not forget. 
    Dark, atmospheric, and unsettling, Hitchhiker is a supernatural horror story about fate, consequence, and the evil that follows long after the choices are made. 
    Some roads don’t lead home. 
    Some rides never end.
