Hidden in Plain View:: A Darryl Billups Mystery

As a harried reporter for the "Baltimore Hearald," Daryll Billups exposed a neo-Natzi killer and halted a rash of lethal bombings that terrorized the city. For his efforts, he was awarded a management position at the paper, a raise, and national fame. But a devious serial slayer is pulling him back to the streets and directly into harm's way.The victims are all young, black, and successful; all discovered nude in the bathrub, their faces defiled with Confederate flag stickers. Everything else is a mystery: the murderer's identity, motives...even the cause of death. And when the killing spreads beyond Baltimore's limits. Darryl will need to rely on every investigative trick he knows to track down a maniac. But Darryl's hunt is attracting unhealthy attention from the worst possible source—and dragging one tough city newsman ever-downward into a spiraling labrynth of tormented emotions, dark revenge, and terrible destruction.
