Chapter Six

by Ken Morselander

Three years ago, Homicide Detectives, Dave Harper and Frank Carter arrested Donald Wayne Hathaway for the murder of a young mother and daughter…victims eight and nine of the so-called “champagne” serial killer. The evidence, while mostly circumstantial, had been enough. Mr. Hathaway currently resides in the Florida State Prison. On death row. Though they had not been able to connect Hathaway to the other seven victims. The year of terror ended.
Det. Harper considered this a big win.
That is, until he reads Chapter Six of Sean MacPherson’s manuscript.
Now, he must question everything he thought was true in the champagne murders.
Have they convicted the wrong man? Who the hell is Sean MacPherson? How can he possibly know the things he knows?
As the well-being of his world begins to deteriorate, Detective Harper finds himself up against Lauren Dampner…a defense attorney who has never lost a capital crime case and at odds with her chief investigator, Arianne Votel.
Then…the unthinkable happened.

Ken is my neighbor. I was a first time reader of this part two edition after reading The Incident because the Kindle edition was nearly unreadable with all its punctuation errors and strange formatting. I re-edited this book for him, so the reading experience was a bit different. All in all, a good follow up to The Incident and lead-in to the third Dampner novel, soon to be released. I was part of the editing team for The Search (part three of the Dampner series). Ken’s style is very different, but once you pick up on it, he’s a good story teller and character builder.
