Blood Cries

The first investigation is not over. Neither are the murders.

John Jordan thought his search for the truth about the Atlanta Child Murders had ended.

He was wrong.

Still haunted by questions no one has answered, a young and inexperienced John returns to the investigation that has already changed the course of his life. He interviews Wayne Williams, the man convicted in connection with the Atlanta Child Murders, and begins looking into the disappearance of Cedric Porter.

What he finds leads somewhere he never expected.

As John follows the clues, one disappearance opens the door to a series of murders-and to a cunning killer who has no intention of letting an inexperienced investigator uncover the truth.

This is John before the badge and before the collar, still learning what it means to pursue justice when the answers are dangerous and the cost of finding them is deeply personal.

And the closer he gets to the killer, the more the investigation changes.

Because John is no longer simply hunting a murderer.

He may be the next victim.
