DYSLEXIA FRIENDLY EDITION
Twenty-one-year-old, armchair detective, John Banister, has been following a Tasmanian murder case since the May one murder of a Hobart jewellry store 2.I.C. The victim was found in her home with a nametag pinned to her pyjama top bearing Erin Dexter – E – 21:51 upon it.
The victim’s name was Julianne Morrison.
Two more identical murders then occurred, with ten days separating each, and John sees a far-reaching pattern, noticing that similar crimes have also occurred in various states and territories of the mainland on the same dates.
John forms an unlikely alliance with a Tasmanian detective, and together, they explore the unique aspects of the nametags; the only things left at every crime scene.
A televised New South Wales Police media briefing convinces John that he needs to fly to Sydney to meet with the detective he saw on TV, and he discovers that the detective was serious when he said that public assistance is welcomed.
Seeing value in the young sleuth’s mind, John is retained as a case consultant, as they work their way through both evidence and theory, discovering a level of callousness, shocking the seasoned detectives.

About the author
Steve Rogan
38 books8 followersWriting came to me in 1975 like a lost dog emerging from a storm. I knew it, and it knew me, though we had never met before; that dog has been at my side ever since.
I have no idea as to from where the muse comes, and I’ve never sought to question it.
I write whatever comes – only if I believe I’m connected to the idea – and I’m happy to go about this work without the restrictiveness of feeling bound to any one genre.
I went to the University of Sydney and, after the professor took delivery of the bottle of wine that had been sent to him as a Christmas gift, I was then required to leave campus and go about my courier work once more.
