Product Description

Used to be kids played outdoors until time for dinner, now social medias the new game in town. These days, they play on their smartphones. But with more freedom comes greater danger. Mobile devices are a conduit into a childs life, not just for friends but for those who intend harm. This is the message of J. Carson Blacks Daphne du Maurier Award-nominated thriller, DARKNESS ON THE EDGE OF TOWN.

Laura Cardinal, a detective with the Arizona Department of Public Safety, troubleshoots homicide investigations in small towns where resources are scarce. When Laura investigates the murder of a fourteen-year-old girl found in a towns park bandshell, she knows immediately what shes up against: a cunning sexual predator. But why is she plagued by the abduction of a schoolmate eighteen years earlier?

In a runaway case that propels Laura from a lavish Tucson estate to the secretive heart of a north Florida town, she must confront the ghosts of her own past. Then another child goes missing--and Laura must race the clock to find her.

A superb debut...Welcome to a strong new voice in American Crime Fiction
