Croaking Prohibited

Croaking #2

by Jim O'Brien

A ruthless killer is on the loose in a small, upscale town. Two young detective brothers are assigned to find the murderer and bring the individual to justice. The killer’s cleverness and evasiveness spark life changing behaviors and outcomes to those who unwittingly and unknowingly cross paths with the vicious criminal.
Croaking Prohibited is a woven tale containing multiple layers of interest. The author cleverly conceals multiple meanings throughout for those so inclined to ponder them. Although technically a crime novel, there are other aspects making it not your typical read. The story is at times funny, sad, exciting, frightening, and informative. Readers may find themselves experiencing anger towards many characters. Some readers might even, at times, have empathy for the monster.
Be ready for a wildly entertaining roller coaster ride of a read as the brothers chase their nemesis as well as their private demons.
