    How to find an unknown book
    I'm trying to find a book that I have read in the past but cannot remember the title or author.

    It is a murder thriller, set in a small town in the USA

    The plot revolves around the local chief of police investigating a series of brutal murders of citizens that have dark secrets of illegal activities (both mild and serious).

    Throughout the book, the perpertrator is known only as "The Man", and each time the reader is lead to a particular suspect, that character is invariably murdered in the next chapter.

    The conclusion of the story is finally that the villain is the police chief's schizophrenic other personality.

    I read a 2nd hand paperback copy in about 1999, so the publishing date must precede that by a few years.

    It was a great read, and I hope there will be someone, familiar with the plot, that can identify the Author and Title for me.

    Many thanks, regards, Curtis

    Wondering how to get unknown published children's books in circulation? Whether the book was self-published or printed by a large publishing house but languishing in warehouses, you can be proactive about getting the book into libraries, schools and family bookshelves.
    The fact is even works of great literature can be overlooked without proper marketing. After the book is written, it likely won't go anywhere unless someone works hard to get it into circulation.
