Readers Thrill in Release of Second Book in Samantha Collins Series, Disappearance Road

HILLSBOROUGH, N.J. - Oct. 27, 2014 - PRLog -- Author Tonya McKinley has released the second, eagerly awaited book in the Samantha Collins Series, Disappearance Road. Published by Outskirts Press, the action/adventure novel picks up Collins’ riveting story with the vanishing of the heroine’s sister.

Author Tonya McKinley released her first novel, Hidden Tears at Lake Cascade, four years ago, keeping her loyal readers on edge for the next chaotic journey in Homicide Detective Samantha Collins life. Tonya passionately drew from her personal life experiences over the last couple years, transferring her emotional pain and rage into her main character developing a fiery plotline.

“The story line in the Samantha Collins Series evolved for two reasons,” explained McKinley, who hopes to call attention to the staggering number of young women reported missing in the United States each year, “to appeal to college-aged girls and for the media to provide an equal amount of news coverage for young women who are reported missing from different socio-economic and racial backgrounds.”

Devastated by the disappearance of her younger sister, Samantha Collins is in jeopardy of becoming mentally paralyzed for the rest of her life as Disappearance Road begins. The lack of information and urgency in the investigation of Vanessa is causing an internal conflict she is unable to manage. The tragic event, along with the betrayal of her trusted partner, Tim, drives her into the arms of a stranger she meets in the Bahamas while investigating the death of a doctor tied to two horrific murders in Lake Cascade. The night turns hauntingly grim when Vanessa fails to text her neighbor to report on her safe arrival back home.

Battling through depression and a life changing personal matter, McKinley is eager to share her literary works with the world. Currently, she is writing the third book in the series and dedicates Disappearance Road to women who have created the life they deserved after suffering from domestic violence and depression.

Disappearance Road is available online through Outskirts Press at www.outskirtspress.com/bookstore. The book is sold through Amazon and Barnes and Noble for a maximum trade discount in quantities of 10 or more, and is being aggressively promoted to appropriate markets with a focus on the fiction and action/adventure categories.
