Synopsis

It is Christmas Eve, 2018. A bomb explodes in a packed movie theater. As the First Defenders move through the crime scene making instant life and death decisions, federal investigators pick up numerous clues, fingerprints and even D.N.A., all belonging to a known murderer. However, it soon becomes crystal clear that this particular criminal could not possibly have been responsible for this crime because he was executed almost eighty years before in the Cañon City, Colorado gas chamber. In “The Sweet Revenge Files”, the latest in the current series of Will James Mysteries, the resourceful and quick-witted investigator and his crew chase after three different, seemingly unrelated killers, all but obsessed by a need to dramatically settle old scores – A television preacher who claims to be doing God’s work by ridding the land of sinners... transgressors... non believers... but whose real driving force is to enrich herself and settle old scores regardless of the death and destruction left in her wake... An art dealer with a dark and well hidden past as well as all of the resources necessary for getting what he wants regardless of who or what he destroys in the process... A former KGB contract killer on a lifelong search for payback from the person who made it more challenging for him to ever rape another woman after he raped her... Each of these criminals seems to be willing and able to do whatever it takes to get their revenge even though such an all consuming objective can and does threaten their own survival. If you think you know how it will all end, guess again. You will almost certainly be wrong – so very, very wrong – because in a Will James Mystery things are very rarely as they first appear. You are about to be strapped into a roller coaster with no end in sight. You will feel as if you are moving in various directions at the very same time but you will refuse to get off until the very end.

About this title

About the Author:

Martin Herman, a successful businessman, born and raised in Brooklyn, New York and a transplanted Hartford County Connecticut resident for the better part of the past two decades, has been writing timely articles and short stories since he was 11 years old. It all began when his 6th grade teacher pulled him aside and told him that she believed he had a natural talent and so she wanted to give him a homework assignment for the rest of his life. She told him to create a new story each and every week; the story could consist of just a few key words or be many pages long. However, the constants had to be that it was imaginative, entertaining, and above all, contain interesting characters. As he now admits, he missed a few weeks – but not many – and by 8th grade he was selling short stories to magazines around the country. In 2015, several months before his 75th birthday, he published his first full length novel, a historical murder mystery, “The Jefferson Files”. In 2016 he published his next novel, a contemporary thriller, “The Hidden Treasure Files”. In May of 2017 he will be publishing his third novel in the current series, a modern tale of murder and terrorist inspired chaos, “The Sweet Revenge Files”. In each of his novels he lovingly blends actual historical events with his own imaginative storytelling abilities. By creating interesting characters with both good and questionable instincts and gently placing them in interesting situations he is able to keep the reader engrossed until the very last page. He believes that almost everyone has an interesting story to share and has been on a mission to help both young and old put those stories to paper.
