The Murderer's Apprentice (The Murderer's Apprentice Mysteries, #1)

by Daryl Anderson

Overview

Baltimore, 1966. A twelve-year-old girl is about to discover that some monsters are real.

 

So far 1966 hasn't been so great for 12-year-old Dara Burke. Her parents fight all the time, and her little brother Alvey is a royal pain. But none of that matters because it's finally summer! Now she and her best friend Fran can ride their bikes, go to Oriole baseball games, or just hang out.

 

Until the day when the dead boy whispers in Dara's ear. Warning her about the bad man who was coming for her and her brother.

 

Across town, Baltimore Patrolman Stan Gorsky also looks forward to summer crab feasts and cold bottles of Natty Boh. But then the first little boy dies under mysterious circumstances.

 

More deaths and strange incidents follow. As evil threatens Dara and those she loves, Officer Gorsky frantically follows the trail of a merciless killer who hunts the little children of Baltimore. A killer who is always one step ahead.

 

As the bad man circles his prey, can young Dara save her brother's life . . . and her own?

About the Author

DARYL ANDERSON is a USA Today Bestselling mystery writer and author of the Addie Gorsky Mysteries as well as the new series of supernatural mysteries The Murderer’s Apprentice.

For Daryl, the road to becoming a writer was pretty twisted—not unlike one of her plots. After burning through several careers—including teaching English and a stint as a psych nurse in a crisis stabilization unit—her husband suggested she try her hand at writing fiction.

Being nobody’s fool, Daryl jumped on the offer. A couple of manuscripts later, she was over the moon when her debut mystery Murder in Mystic Cove hit the USA Today Bestseller list. Since then, Daryl hasn’t looked back.

Though a longtime resident of Florida, Daryl recently traded all that heat and sunshine for the cool, rainy vistas of Washington state. When not plotting her latest homicide, you might find her hiking a lonesome woodland trail with her nutty dog Pitch, always on the lookout for where the bodies are buried.
