Frank Brubaker, the Deputy Director of the FBI, had an unusual case land on his desk. Mark Buick had been arrested for two murders that he says he is being framed for by the police. But he is willing to admit to two other killings that he committed, and he will show them where he buried the bodies if they take the death penalty away for the two murders to which he is pleading innocent. The police don’t know if he is lying or not, and the other two people he is claiming he murdered are on the missing persons list, which could possibly make Mark a serial killer with four murders to his name. The case intrigued Frank. Was Mark Buick being framed by the police? Did Mark kill the two missing persons, or did he have a partner kill them? And if so, then there is another killer out there. There were a lot of unanswered questions that Frank thought would be good for his Secret Task Force to investigate, with the help of Joe’s gift of getting into people’s dreams and finding out their secrets. Can Joe find out if Mark is a crackpot or is he being framed? Did he kill two or four people? And if he had a partner, can Joe find him before he kills again?
Allan J Lewis was born in South Wales UK, a son of a coal miner, in August 1939, just before the outbreak of World War 2. He started work underground for the National Coal Board on his fifteenth birthday. He married in March 1961 and has two children, a daughter and a son, and two grandchildren. Deep down he always wanted to be a writer but he felt thwarted by his lack of education. He would write a few pages and give up, frustrated by spelling and grammar. (This was before the days of personal computers.) As a young man he didn’t have much time to read or write. He was working two shifts on the coalface, and when his daughter came along he got himself another job as a part-time fireman. By the time he was in his late forties and his two children had married, he found time to start reading again. He enjoyed the adventure novels of Wilbur Smith and the works of James Patterson and Lee Child. He loves a good crime thriller. The pleasure he found in reading rekindled his desire to write. He would create stories in his head, but did not put pen to paper in earnest until he retired. Allan has written two books a Mystery/Thriller and an Erotic/Romance.
