"Powers of Arrest"

Jon Talton's novels include the thriller, Deadline Man, several David Mapstone mysteries, and The Pain Nurse, the first of The Cincinnati Casebooks series.

He applied the Page 69 Test to Powers of Arrest, a new Cincinnati Casebook, and reported the following:

This page is one that I hope would snag the reader who opens the book here. Cheryl Beth has just returned home after the first set of grisly murders and she’s left alone with her thoughts and dread. But she’s the kind of person who won’t allow a vacuum to go unfilled, and she will soon take action. Here we get to know her better and see her prepare to propel the story forward. It’s also the start of a new chapter.
