A Cold-Case Crime that Packs a Punch
| April 24, 2013 | Filled under Uncategorized |
Delve into a fascinating and mysterious cold-case crime that packs a punch with today’s feature book, The Passerby by Thomas Ray Crowel. A chilling account based on true events and a book Jack Fredrickson, author of HONESTLY DEAREST, YOU’RE DEAD and A SAFE PLACE FOR DYING calls, “An exciting, cold-case crime novel that races to a shocking conclusion, yes. But more, a scorching, penetrating look at what we’re afraid surrounds us all.”
Now let’s take a peak at The Passerby:
Penn County, Indiana: 1986
Two weeks before Christmas, Eleven-year-old Trudie is strangled to death in her own home. The crime goes unsolved.
Twenty years later author Ray Krouse is oddly drawn to Trudie’s gravesite and her murder. When he approaches her mother about investigating her death, she oddly responds, “They know.”
Ray believes Trudie deserves justice and he and his publicist friend, Kick Jetton, spend the next two years searching for her killer. He learns that the close-knit community has different ideas about what happened to Trudie that night and many aren’t willing to talk at all. With an uncooperative police department and only a few locals willing to help, Ray eventually narrows the list to one key suspect – a man who still lives among them.
Inspired by true events, The Passerby has all the twists and turns of a cold case murder investigation, but with an entirely unique and powerful ending.
About the Author:
A lifelong Hoosier, Thomas Ray Crowel is the author of two commercial books: SIMPLE SELLING: COMMON SENSE THAT GUARANTEES YOUR SUCESS and DIRTY LITTLE TRICKS: HOW SALESPEOPLE ARE ROBBING YOU BLIND.

What Other Authors Are Saying About The Passerby:
“Every small town has a mystery — often an unsolved murder. Crowel ably reveals the painstaking process of sifting truth from layers of lies in a town where a cold case cover-up outweighs justice. A revelatory novel about human nature, good and bad, and the kind of dogged persistence often needed for victims who can’t speak for themselves.” —- Katherine Ramsland, author of THE HUMAN PREDATOR
“Based on a true crime case, Thomas Ray Crowel has meticulously researched the real crime and has taken fiction to a new level in this cleverly-created yarn.” —- Gary C. King, author of AN ALMOST PERFECT MURDER
