South of River Screen
The novel "South of River Screen" is a gripping detective thriller set against the backdrop of contemporary America. It follows the enigmatic Homicide Captain Joe Harper and renowned psychiatrist Dr. Adam Kane. Their paths cross in a chilling case of unnatural death amongst psychiatric patients.
Joe discovers that Adam is the adopted son of his late mentor, a decorated police detective who died under mysterious circumstances labeled a "traffic accident." For years, Joe has been investigating the case in secret, making no progress as those in the know remain silent. Deliberately, Joe tries to get close to Adam, but Adam seems indifferent towards his foster father's memory.
As the investigation progresses, it appears to engulf them both into an abyss with no end. A key informant in a decade-old case, known as the "June 15th case," is murdered, with evidence pointing to Adam as the prime suspect.
Duty-bound, Joe arrests Adam. However, as Adam faces danger repeatedly, Joe cannot suppress his deeply buried affection for him, which becomes a torrent of emotion.
"You must realize what it means to run at a time like this," Joe says, as Adam feels the chill of the handcuffs around his wrist.
"Stay put while I search you," Joe's voice is cuttingly cold.
"Explain in three sentences why you ran," Joe demands.
"You've tried to find out what I want, I've told you everything now, does that change anything?" Adam asks with a bitter smile.
"I can't let you go," Joe states, his voice devoid of warmth.
The story intertwines the lives of two strong, elite individuals in a metropolitan setting where love and duty clash amidst suspenseful mysteries. Their roles as a Homicide Captain and a Psychiatrist challenge them to navigate the complex moral landscape of a society governed by law.
