The Index Killer

The victims of a brutal, tortured serial killer are piling up in the affluent town of Boca Raton, Florida. Residents are terrified. Police are mystified. Why is this deranged person singling out petite, young blondes? Why are their index fingers cut off as trophies after they've been raped and strangled? Leading the investigation is Homicide Detective Catherine Delaney and her sexy partner Cody O'Dell. Raped as a teenager, Catherine is desperate to catch this killer before another young woman is murdered. Adding to her frustration is Cody's chauvinist attitude towards women in law enforcement, as well as her undeniable attraction to that maddening man. The Index Killer moves at breakneck speed, with thrilling intrigue and romantic tension that'll keep you fascinated and guessing. About the author: Barbara Bixon (writing as A.R. Alan) is a born storyteller. Even in first grade, she became notorious for scribbling stories on scraps of paper. When she wasn't doing that, she'd have her nose buried in a book, soaking up other peoples' stories. Reading and writing novels became lifelong passions, and she's currently finishing her eleventh novel. Worldwide travel and a career that brought her into contact with a never-ending stream of interesting personalities and celebrities fanned her already fertile imagination over the years and validate the vivid, often zany characters that people her novels. Barbara is also an avid environmentalist and played a major role in saving a New Jersey/New York mountain range from developers. It will remain open space forever. Previously writing under the name of B.B. Carter and currently as A.R. Alan, she has had many short stories, poems and novels published. She's also sold comedic material to Joan Rivers. Screenplays available for: The House of Cupcakes, The CB (Chocolate Brown) Social Club, and Do I Flaunt My Fat, or Jump Off a Bridge? Barbara would love to hear from her readers.
