Decline into Depravity

Once you embrace evil and wickedness, it's a slippery slide into depravity. High school teacher, Graham Spencer, is off on another adventure, and you can bet there’s murder in the air. Having finished his first novel, he’s embarked on writing his second—this time set in the La Grande, Oregon, area. Graham and his girlfriend, Kandis McFerrin, find themselves in the midst of the mysterious killing of an unidentified girl in the eastern Oregon winter. As they research this homicide, they become enmeshed in the case of a serial murderer, the I-84 Blackjack Killer. They begin to wonder if the two are related. As the action unfolds, Graham and Kandis are entangled in a larger web of secrecy and deception where all is not as it seems. A colorful cast of characters add humor to the mix, and some of AJ Arthur’s favorite recipes complement the plot.
