Experience the true crime story of a married father and ex-cop with a dark side in this “fast-paced, unforgettable real-life thriller” (Sue Russell).

A handsome, married young father and former deputy sheriff, Gabriel Morris looked like the picture of respectability.

In a gracious Virginia suburb, a SWAT team swooped down on the renegade family and ended their wild, dangerous ride. What followed was even more shocking, as the story of how Gabriel Morris ended up on the wrong side of the law took investigators on a dark journey into the heart of a killer . . .

Об авторе
Robert Scott discovered that true-crime writing is incredibly interesting, as ‘You have to be part journalist, part detective and part analytical writer for the true crime market.’ Robert’s books have detailed the lives of killers and victims, police detectives and FBI agents—from California to Iowa, from the Canadian border to the Mexican border.
