The Hidden Scalpel released 10/1/24! It is a medical thriller mystery featuring a residentially challenged protagonist and a group of friends who happened to meet at a park. Here’s the description:
A string of disappearances. A chilling connection. When his comfort zone shatters, can a former cop battle PTSD and save innocents from the grave?
Joe “Fitz” Fitzgerald doesn’t need more stress. Living out of his car and hanging on to sobriety with help from his cat, the gruff ex-military man’s ever-lurking anxiety surges to the surface when a residentially challenged friend vanishes. And when the police claim there’s nothing they can do, his anger and resentment drive him to take the investigation into his own shaky hands.
Certain the kidnappings are racially motivated, Fitz fights through his panic response and rallies his comrades to warn the vulnerable African American population. But when they set one of their own up as bait to track the criminals, the situation spirals from dangerous to deadly.
Outnumbered and outmaneuvered, can he still find a way to bring everyone home alive?
The Hidden Scalpel is the character-driven first book in the Park Pals Mysteries series. If you like amateur sleuths, page-turning suspense, and stories that tackle current social issues, then you’ll love Dwain Cassady’s thoughtful puzzle.
