The Streepers die instantly from a fatal car accident along with their son hours later in the hospital, or so he thinks. Landon amazingly pulls through, but with long term traumatization and hallucinations. Everything seems to be getting back to normal at Seattle P.D. until certain pedestrians are being killed in a similar fashion to Landon's parents' deaths. The only evidence is a note the sick minded serial killer leaves in blood after every crime scene. On each one is a single letter beginning to spell out a name. How far will Landon as a detective go before this criminal mastermind covering his tracks drives him further into insanity? How long will his best friends Oliver and Jen stay by his side? Or will they find themselves turning away? There is a connection between each victim, but is there a bigger picture at large that Landon's mind wants him desperately to believe? TCB is a fast paced thriller novel (and has some humorous elements) that you figure out as you go. It is sure to keep you on the edge of your seat with anticipation the whole time. (Contains some strong language and acts of violence)
