All that homicide detective M Gantry needs in order to solve the most gruesome murders in Miami history is the answer to a simple question. Who is the cigarette smoker? Who is the serial killer leaving the half-smoked Camels butts at the scene of each crime?The problem is the vicious killer might be linked to her own murky past, and her future.When her partner is added to the list of victims, hoochie mama or not, the beautiful, troubled M Gantry must act and act fast before the killer strikes again.

A serial killer's desire to protect children fuels a parallel drive to murder other sadistic men in this immersive and literary psychological thriller. BULLIED AS CHILD FOR BEING OVERWEIGHT and an orphan, the serial killer in I Disappeared Them hides in plain sight. By day, he is an affable family man with a disarming smile, surrounded by his children and loving wife. At night he punches the clock as a hard-working pizza man. After work, he roams Miami's nighttime streets as the Periwinkle Killer, the sociopath passing judgment on the wicked according to a twisted moral code. He believes himself to be a defender of women and children. The Everglades is filling up with the corpses of his victims. He must be stopped, but there are no clues except the periwinkles he leaves at every crime scene. I Disappeared Them is a brutal, boy meets girl love story that delves into the Periwinkle Killer’s childhood to confront the age-old question, is a serial killer designed or destined? Like Bret Easton Ellis's American Psycho and Joyce Carol Oates's Zombie, Preston L. Allen's immersive narrative hauntingly occupies the peculiar psychological landscape of a murderer.
