"Midnight Hours" leaves you wanting More, much More!, By Kathleen Stemke "Author" (Mount Airy, Georgia) - Once I started reading about the mysterious and treacherous Midnight, an online predator who targets disabled men, I couldn't put the book down. Martin Rogers, a disabled detective himself, was falling for this intriguing character until he discovers that several men with accidental death policies are tied to Midnight and have "accidental" deaths. Then the search begins for this complex, elusive, and intelligent killer. This story has more twists than one of those large, yummy pretzels that you just can't stop eating. In fact, like its pretzel counterpart this story leaves you wanting more, much more.
The author, Vivian Zabel, has created charming characters that you begin to see as your old friends. You care so much about them that you may even worry for their safety between readings. I found myself wanting to contribute to the detective's brain storming sessions.
As the search for Midnight intensifies you feel the tension building. If you want an exciting, satisfying read that will temporarily take you away from the cares of this world, curl up next to your fireplace with "Midnight Hours" by Vivian Gilbert Zabel.
