The Playground

People are vanishing from the town of Steadworth, Texas without a trace. The townsfolk are stunned to learn the sheriffs Dept. have no leads. How does someone simply vanish without evidence? That is until six-year-old Brooke Bennett is taken from Dillard Hill Playground from right under her mother's nose—and, just like the others, vanished without a trace. Almost. Whoever took Brooke left only one clue: two drag marks in the playground's wood chips leading away from the slide. Officer Jim Brown, a recently posted veteran from Houston, is the only one who suspects there's more to this than just a simple abduction. In fact, the evidence he finds leads him to discover the terrifying truth . . .

About the Author

Originally from Calgary, AB, I live in Sooke, BC on Vancouver Island, Canada. A twelve-year veteran in the Canadian Navy, I'm nine years married with a three-year-old son. I enjoy Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and I'm a blue belt. I really enjoy reading novels in my spare time. My biggest influences are Stephen King and Cormac McCarthy. My favourite novels of the two are King's The Stand and McCarthy's The Road. Honestly, my goals are just to see if I can put a book on someone's shelf. If I can make one person read this book and go "WOW!" then that's the goal.
