He noticed a strong odor as he moved the curtains to look inside. A vile liquid surged up his throat and spilled out on the grass. He grabbed his cell phone and called 911.

Thus begins the case that unnerves the most seasoned veterans on the force. A witness interview leads Detective Dallas Keegan and her partner to evidence that puts the investigation into overdrive. HE IS NOT DONE. Her personal life unravels as she hunts down this demon while fighting her own.

Patti J. Smith lives in Vista, CA, is married and the grandmother of two.  She recently retired as a background investigator to care for her parents and uncle which provided her an opportunity to pursue her passion of writing.  Patti has written poetry since childhood; however, heard the calling to write devotionals.

She sings in her parish choir, co-leads Rachel's Hope Post-Abortion Healing retreats in San Diego County and developed a follow-up retreat, "The Healing Continues".  She also serves as a Regional Coordinator for the Silent No More Awareness Campaign.
