DARKNESS
IN THIS GRIPPING FOLLOW-UP TO MADNESS, Alex Watts returns with a heart-stopping case that pulls her deep into the shadows of New York City.
When the mayor dies under mysterious circumstances, private investigator Alex Watts reluctantly takes on a new client, Simon Blackwood. Blackwood believes someone has uncovered a relic brimming with ancient power—the kind that draws in dangerous people like moths to a flame. And when they come for it, they don't leave witnesses.
As bodies begin to fall and Alex unravels a sinister web of myths and murder, she realizes the stakes are even higher than she imagined. With a mysterious mastermind pulling the strings from the shadows and a city on the brink, Alex races to uncover the relic’s hidden pieces before its dark potential can be unleashed.
In a battle against time and an unseen enemy, Alex fights to keep New York—and herself—from descending into utter darkness.

About the author
Wesley Cross
13 books41 followersBorn on a military base in the Far East, Wesley had a rather unusual childhood. While other kids ran around parks and traded toys, the oldest son of an active Air Force officer and a kindergarten teacher spent his early days walking on wings of parked jet fighters and climbing into pilot chairs of strategic bombers.
He first started writing while in grade school, once hijacking a physics lesson to read out loud his science fiction novella to the entire class. He continued to write in college, mostly short pieces until finally, he felt he had some full-length stories that needed to be read by other people.
His wide variety of interests includes photography, which once led to a publication in the Popular Photography magazine, martial arts, music, and, of course, reading and writing.
Wesley moved to New York City in the tumultuous 90s. He lives in Brooklyn with his wife and son.
