  I Disappeared Them - A Novel

  Bullied as a child for being overweight and an orphan, the serial killer in I Disappeared Them hides in plain sight. By day, he is an affable family man with a disarming smile, surrounded by his children and loving wife. At night, he punches the clock as a hardworking pizza man. After work, he roams Miami’s nighttime streets as the Periwinkle Killer, a sociopath passing judgment on the wicked according to a twisted moral code. He believes himself to be a defender of women and children. The Everglades is filling up with the corpses of his victims. He must be stopped, but there are no clues except the periwinkles he leaves at every crime scene. 
   
  I Disappeared Them is a brutal boy-meets-girl love story that delves into the Periwinkle Killer’s childhood to confront the age-old question: is a serial killer designed or destined? Like Bret Easton Ellis’s American Psycho and Joyce Carol Oates’s Zombie, Preston L. Allen’s immersive narrative hauntingly occupies the peculiar psychological landscape of a murderer. 
   
  “What if you’re a good person—kind, sensitive, funny—but evil won’t let you be? I Disappeared Them is the story of a good man tormented, fervently wrestling right and wrong, life and murder. His battle against the demons of a secret mental chaos is a contest he can’t win, and yet we can’t help but enjoy the fight, every round, blood seeping out like love to its masterful end. What I mean is that Preston L. Allen kills so good, you’ve never seen such desperate beauty in the grisly, lovely,fleshy pages of murder that is as groundbreaking as it is gloriously literary.”—Anjanette Delgado, author of The Heartbreak Pill

  The first in a BRAND NEW action thriller series from the Wilbur Smith Prize-Shortlisted author Alex Shaw.Perfect for fans of Tom Wood, Vince Flynn and Mark Greaney, this is an explosive action thriller you won’t be able to put down 💥📚 
  ‘Another excellent stripped-back, razor-edge thriller from Alex Shaw’ - New York Times bestselling author James Swallow 
  Killing for a living is easy, living for a reason is much harder 
  Meet Ruslan Akulov. 
  In the shadowy world of assassins for hire, he is known as ‘Wolf Six’. 
  A Ukrainian raised in Moscow, conscripted into Russia’s most covert Special Forces unit ‘The Werewolves’, Akulov is full of loathing for the country that built and then broke him. The only rules he follows now are his own. 
  Unable to shake the guilt of his past, Akulov has made it his business to seek out those who prey upon the innocent. The name Wolf Six is legendary - whispered by those who know it with fear. But when Akulov accidentally thwarts the armed robbery of a Chicago Bank, he pits himself against both the Russian Bratva and the CIA, setting into motion a spiralling sequence of events which will bring his past back to haunt him, and potentially turn his future to ashes… 
  His mission of retribution takes him from Chicago to Kyiv, to Havana and back into the US, where Akulov must stop at nothing if he is to remain alive. No simple mission, even for the world’s deadliest assassin. 
  Praise for Wolf Six:

  'A master of the violent, jet-propelled international thriller which at times make Jason Bourne look like the innocent plus-one on a SAGA cruise.' Mike Ripley 
  'An action-packed page-turner, rounded out with doses of realpolitik and melancholy for what can be lost. I was gripped' Antony Johnston 
  'Wolf Six is a stunning piece of work. No-one builds tension like Alex Shaw. In the field of high-stakes international intrigue, Shaw knows his stuff and is at the top of his game.' Humphrey Hawksley 
  'Wolf Six keeps you raving for Akulov to escape the most harrowing situations and come out at the top when all odds are stacked against him. It’s bold, strong, and unforgiving in its violent nature and an unnerving mission to entertain you.' Kashif Hussain - Best Thriller Books
