The Shattered Man

After forensic psychologist Alex Windsor's wife becomes a victim in a string of brutal murders, he is consumed by guilt.

Convinced that his published profile helped The Meat Man strike one last time, he vanishes into the isolation of Oregon’s high country. A year later, his self-imposed exile ends when he learns that his wife’s death may not have been what it seemed.

Returning to Portland, he is determined to unravel the tangled web behind the killings and confront his past. He plunges deep into the city's underbelly, uncovering clues that draw him closer to the truth and leads to murder, conspiracy and betrayal.

A dark psychological crime thriller, THE SHATTERED MAN is the second book in Tom Towslee's Northwest Noir series.
