Advanced Reviews from the Beta readers:
Ronnie Mercer, author from Canada said:
Bob Moats, the author of over 20 continuous “Murder” books, out did himself in
“Fatal Rejection.” This fiction book in a word is “intense”. Derek Harcourt has
written and had published a true crime book about the NY Slasher, a serial
killer who was never caught. Before having his book published, he was rejected
many times by publishing companies. Enter, Sarah Keller, an editor of a major
publishing company in New York whose husband was murdered several months ago.
She decided to start over and moved across country to Washington state. But,
Harcourt has other plans for Sarah and commences to drive to out to her and
along the way, mimics the NY Slasher’s crimes and leaves several victims in his
wake. The book is full of heart stopping suspense with likeable characters and
at times a little humor. Will Sarah find happiness away from her haunted past,
or will her refusal letter to publish a mad man’s book be a Fatal Rejection? I
would give this book 5 stars.

Author of "Unsolved Serial Killers" and "Women who Kill"
From Boni Rychener:
Bob Moats once again amazes me with his brilliant storytelling ability. In
"Fatal Rejection", he writes from the point of view of not only the victim but
the murderer as well and he was able to pull it off wonderfully. The parts of
the story told through the eyes of the victim, Sarah, were soft and light with
a hint of sadness while the parts told through the murderer's eyes, Derek, were
brash and hard and it was easy to get caught up in the characters. I thoroughly
enjoyed this novel and found it difficult to put down.

author of 20 novels about a senior citizen sleuth named Jim Richards,

The Story
|
From the East coast to the West coast the NY Slasher
carved his murderous spree on thirty women, and then just disappeared.
Derek Harcourt wrote about the Slasher’s crimes in his first book. Now writing a
second book, Harcourt has ulterior motives for this novel and is following
the Slasher’s journey all the way from New York to Washington state.
Sarah Keller is Harcourt’s editor and the unsuspecting victim of horrible
crimes in her past and maybe her future. Will there be more murders when
Harcourt and Keller finally meet?
