About A Simple Act of Violence: A Thriller

Washington, embroiled in midterm elections, did not want to hear about an unsettling series of murders. But when the newspapers reported a fourth killing, when they gave the killer a name and details of his horrendous crimes, few people could ignore it. Detective Robert Miller is assigned to the case and rapidly uncovers a complication: the victims do not officially exist. Their personal details do not register on any known systems, and as Miller unearths ever more disturbing facts, he starts to face truths about the corrupt world he lives in -- truths so far removed from his own reality that he begins to fear for his life.
