THE CHEMIST

This thrilling novel of 450+ pages has been featured on esteemed news sites such as FOX, NBC, ABC and Boston Herald. The Chemist was the 2010 Sharp Writ Book Award Fiction Winner!

The chemist leaves no evidence as he kidnaps his victims. No one has ever seen him, heard his voice, or felt the touch of his hand... and lived to tell the tale.

The Chemist blends into everyday life. Like a chameleon, he arouses no suspicion, He is charming, intelligent, friendly and a sociopath. Having created a liquid sedative/fentanyl cocktail that allows him to kidnap any victim he chooses, day or night, leaving no trace or clues behind, he begins his abduction spree. Thus the problems begin for homicide investigator Cale Van Waring, who heads up the Special Crimes Unit for the Green Bay PD. Three female victims have already vanished, with one headless body recovered from Lake Michigan. There are no suspects, no crime scene, no witnesses.

Now a new missing victim’s MO matches the headless-body case. Theories range from cults to witchcraft covens to a serial killer. Yet with no clues or evidence, Cale must face the hard facts: how do you catch a killer who leaves no trace? How do you stop a clever murderer, who’s intent on committing the perfect crime?

Following a spotty trail, Cale has a theory. But with his boss on his back, and his girlfriend (Maggie) giving him ultimatums, can he stop a cold-blooded killer before he strikes again? Or does the Chemist have a more sinister plot in mind? Cale better figure it out, before another headless body floats up out of the lake.
