Where No Crows Fly

Captain Charles Francis Charles Hall is a soldier, a hero, an Intelligence Officer and a cold-hearted serial killer. He started his killing in the 1920's, kept killing through peacetime, ultimately teaching his daughter, Florence Elizabeth how to kill just like him. But Florence Elizabeth is worse, not just a chip off the the old block, but a brand new block, cold, hard, cruel, delighting in the pain and suffering of others. Now she's teaching her son how to follow her. John Adams is the cop brought back from sick leave to break her, to make her confess, when she has never confessed before. He's the victim of a murder attempt, shot five times, clinging to life, nursed by his beautiful younger, model wife, Emma. Will she be the one who has to pay the price for his investigation into Florence Elizabeth? Who will live, who will die? A wonderfully researched, excting, moving novel from s.d. gripton.
