ABOUT THE BOOK
City locals face their own struggles as they deal with the day-to-day of their individual lives, until their routines are disturbed by the discovery that there may be a murderer lurking among them in the shadows.
Someone is picking people off in the night and leaving the bodies to be found in the morning. Locals see on the news that the victims are being discovered very close to some of their homes in Midtown Sacramento, California.
This page-turning fiction thriller dives into the lives of three main characters: the killer, a college student, and a therapist, whose stories become intertwined. City of Trees, City of Shadows blends themes of medicine, mental healthcare, and violence—and nobody is safe.
