“A compulsively readable suspense thriller…The Prairies Book Review *****
A riveting psychologically, morally complex novel of blood ties, duty, crime, and retribution, in which Maxwell Muggs must face a maniac arsonist and killer while trying to come to terms with a long-buried secret about his past. In the end it’s about justice, about right and wrong… and it’s also about retribution.”

Couldn't put this story and ended up reading it far into the night. The day to day running of care facilities is interesting with the fascinating characters weaved into the story. Not just a good thriller, but touching, too.
I am really enjoying this book. As I read, the scene plays in my mind which makes it hard to put down. The story has gripped me for sure.

The Only Witness
The Only Witness James King
A quiet Sunday, a vicious assault. One man’s resurrection is another’s good luck.
When Alfie set out on his morning cycle ride, the last thing he expected was to be the only witness to attempted murder. The perpetrator of the crime was the only person who knew Alfie had seen him at the scene. And Alfie was easy to find. Scared out of his wits, he kept his head down and waited, as a weird sequence of events unfolded.
Suspenseful and gripping, the short story will give you a taste for the trilogy ALFIE GOES TO THAILAND. You’ll want to read all 3 novels.
