The Ghost

Terror strikes Northwest Florida when the decomposing body of an eight year old child is found on the Navarre-Pensacola Beach road. Even more shocking is the fact that the child was the second victim of a heinous serial killer on the loose.

The schools are empty, the playgrounds are deserted as the FDLE, the FBI and the Sheriff departments of four counties all fail to stop the killing spree.

Assigned to her first street job, FBI agent Jodie Murphy pairs up with Joe Carlucci—her father's ex partner—in a bid to bring the murderous rampage to an end.

But the case becomes even more complicated when two more bodies are discovered in North Okaloosa County; prompting the governor to summon the National Guard.

This book is based on an actual case, although the time, places and names of persons have been changed by the author.
