Implied Contract

In the world of law enforcement, there are few things more complicated and exasperating than the investigation of a serial murder. Multiple victims and multiple crime scenes require extra attention and extraordinary analytical skills.

The rare instance of a sniper serial killer is perhaps the most challenging investigation of all. With little evidence and lots of danger, a high-powered rifleman represents an investigator\''s worst nightmare. That nightmare has come true for the characters in Implied Contract.

Death at long distance. Imagine a serial killer who never touches his victim. Never kidnaps them, never tortures them, never even comes close to them. Sound impossible? It\''s not. Very rarely, a serial killer comes along who represents the pinnacle of deadly detachment. He is a sniper. Using a high-powered rifle and the proper ammunition, he can be hundreds of yards away and still kill instantly. In the right surroundings, a sniper can operate undetected for years. The combination of no trace evidence at the scenes, no witnesses, no ballistic evidence and no informants makes this scenario next to impossible to unravel.

Mason Klauss and Jill Redhorse tackle these seemingly unsolvable murders, deftly weaving through a complicated maze of corrupt politicians, crooked cops, vigilante townspeople, and a budding romantic relationship. Thrilling from beginning to end, Implied Contract examines the inherent injustices and obstacles of the criminal justice system while telling a truly unforgettable story.

Author Mike Smitley has over thirty years of experience in law enforcement. With a Bachelor\''s degree in Criminal Justice and a Master\''s degree in Public Administration, he expertly combines both fields of study in this compelling novel. Five years before the D.C. serial sniper case of 2003, Mike had completed and copyrighted Implied Contract.
