Follow on Google News | ![]() Coming in November from Down & Out Books: THE UNKNOWING by Trey R. BarkerBy: Down & Out Books About THE UNKNOWING … Runaway. Victim of domestic battery. An older, married boyfriend. Pregnant. And ultimately, dead and forgotten in a cornfield. For Sheriff's Deputy Wes Spahn, this isn't just another case. For Spahn, this case will have too many emotional similarities to his first case as a detective, similarities that will leave him questioning everything. The Unknowing winds around like the rows of the cornfield in which Suzanne Margaret Haas was found, moving inexorably through false leads and empty clues, from incorrect identifications to bad suspects. Advance praise for THE UNKNOWING … "Part elegy, part police procedural, with a sprinkle of gallows cop shop banter and a splash of country noir, The Unknowing is a heartfelt new entry in the dark and dangerous public blotter of Barkerville." "Trey R. Barker is one of the most lyrical writers of crime fiction around, and his noir police procedural The Unknowing is no exception. His solid character development, combined with his polished prose, races to a surprising finale which makes us ponder whether Sheriff's Deputy Wes Spahn ran the case or the case ran him." —Libby Fischer Hellmann, author of the Georgia Davis PI Series Meet the author … Trey R.
