Eerie Link Found Between Four Murders in Vigilante Caretaker, Published by Outskirts Press
Outskirts Press announces the latest highly anticipated romantic fiction and suspense book from Greenville, TX, author Avon Acker.
Greenville, TX, July 12, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Outskirts Press, Inc. has published Vigilante Caretaker by Avon Acker. The author's most recent book to date is a 6 x 9 paperback in the romantic fiction and suspense category and is available worldwide on book retailer websites such as Amazon and Barnes & Noble. The webpage at www.outskirtspress.com/vigilantecaretaker was launched simultaneously with the book's publication.
In 1940, a man accused of attempted rape was allowed to walk free while his victim was virtually imprisoned in her home in terror of her attacker. A few months after the attack, the man was ambushed and murdered. The killing was never solved and was soon forgotten.
In 1951, an alcoholic wife abuser was murdered in his barn. Three weeks later, a well-known rancher’s wife was found murdered with her lover in the loft of a hay barn. These killings bore an eerie resemblance to the 1940 slaying.
Deputy sheriff Leonard Cranford was tasked with following the few leads that existed in an attempt to bring the killer to justice. As his investigation proceeded, the evidence began to point to beautiful Ann Parsons, the young woman Cranford loves and respects. Trapped in a loveless marriage to a greedy, money-grubbing, older man, Ann has dedicated her life to helping the many poor and unfortunate people in her community. Unknown to Ann, events are about to transpire that will change her life forever.
The only question is, will they transpire in time to save Ann from herself?
268 pages in length, Vigilante Caretaker is being aggressively promoted to appropriate markets with a focus on the romantic fiction and suspense category. With U.S. wholesale distribution through Ingram and Baker & Taylor, and pervasive online availability through Amazon, Barnes & Noble and elsewhere, Vigilante Caretaker meets consumer demand through both retail and library markets with a suggested retail price of $19.95.
Additionally, Vigilante Caretaker can be ordered by retailers or wholesalers for the maximum trade discount price set by the author in quantities of ten or more from the Outskirts Press wholesale online bookstore at www.outskirtspress.com/buybooks.
