Kenneth Eade, "one of our strongest thriller writers on the scene."
Don't just read a story, live it!
"Eade is not only a brilliant writer; he calls attention to the atrocities that surround us, hiding in our own closets. Once you read an Eade thriller, you can only be eager for more." Grady Harp, Amazon Hall of Fame, Top 100 and Vine Voice
"Fans of Grisham will find equal talent here in Eade's ability to captivate and hold readers with the unexpected, both in character development and non-stop action. In a world where plot and outcome are often predictable from the start, this will prove more than satisfying for readers already already well versed in the legal thriller format." Midwest Book Review
