Seven Sins Plus One
A mystery is to me the one subject that draws you into a good story. It's the nagging question of what will happen next that most people are looking for when reading or watching a mystery show. This is the main reason I wrote this novel, to pull you into another world of murder mystery. This novel starts off at trying to solve your typical murder, but as the story goes on I get away from the typical if you will. I wanted to write something that is not the typical or the usual. I wanted my readers to get away from telling themselves I already know what's going to happen. The main character Hank Keys is to me not your average detective, as your reading you'll see that his methods on solving a case are again not your typical way, but affected. This murder mystery has a lot of twist and surprises and I also put in some personal quotes that I feel that a lot of people can relate to. So some things up I chose to name this novel Seven Sins because each one them relates to every one of my characters as well as all of us. I'm sure you realize that the word obsession is in red, but don't get ahead just yet. You have to read the novel to get what it means.... it's not just your typical word. A little about myself, I'm just your normal average person. Depends on what your definition of normal is. I'm your average man born and raised in Shreveport, Louisiana. I grow up in the country, so I guess you can say I'm a young man with an old soul. I own my own Irrigation business which it is a family business. In my spare time I work out a lot and enjoy anime from time to time. Yes, that may be weird to some but it's my stress reliever. Writing was something I was told to do from my family. Through-out this pandemic I was told to do something I never did before something new. I've always enjoyed a good mystery so I figure I'd try and write one. I don't have a website but I am working on getting one if everything goes well, so fingers crossed.
