Something very new: This book now has TWO alternative endings, one of which is much darker than the other.
But the sandy beaches and the turquoise sea can provide no cover from the deadly eyes of the unknown stalker pursuing Cuff. Murder leads to murder as he attempts to untangle the terrible web in which he has suddenly become entangled.
The twists and turns are many, the roads of the fast action leading in all directions. Cuff and Rosie are relentlessly pursued by a diabolical force that shows them no mercy. Do these two good people stand a chance against such sheer evil?
A NEW CONCEPT
I am quite pleased that DEADLY EYES, a Caribbean murder mystery, has received great praise from some very highly respected authors and reviewers. Here is a brief sampling:
The Kindle Book Review says, “Michael Meyer has once again managed to pull me into a story that totally catches me off guard in the end. The ride is fast and furious and the outcome will leave you blindsided.”
Nick Russell, the bestselling author of the Big Lake series says, “Michael Meyer has done it again, weaving a fascinating tale of murder and intrigue in the tropical paradise of St. Croix that will keep you turning the page to the very end.”
At the same time, though, some readers have made it clear that they were turned off by the ending, which, indeed, is a downer. Those readers simply did not like to see bad things happen to good people. Cuff and Rosie are good people caught up in a terrible situation. They are relentlessly pursued by a diabolical force that shows them no mercy. Do these two good people stand a chance against such sheer evil? We like Cuff and Rosie as people. We identify with them. We root for them. We want good to prevail over evil, but, unfortunately, the real world does not always operate that way.
With all of this in mind, I am delighted to report that I have come up with an entirely new concept for the book: DEADLY EYES now provides TWO alternative endings in order to satisfy individual reading preference. Readers now have the opportunity to read only the upbeat ending, or they can choose to read the original, much darker ending, skipping either the first ending or the second one. They also have the option of reading both endings, if they so desire. I am excited by this new concept of offering reading preference choices to my readers.
EXCERPT
These were not naked eyes, for the distance between these eyes and the beach bar at Cathy’s Fancy was too great for the naked eye to discern who was who. No, these eyes had planned meticulously. The eyes were glued to a pair of terribly expensive and unbelievably powerful Swarovski Optik binoculars. The balcony on which they now worked, taking in the scene before them, was the perfect place to see but not be seen. The powerful binoculars saw to that.
The distance, the palm trees, and the rays of the sun all helped. The position had been hand picked, after careful consideration. Every angle had been considered, and, one by one, they had all been discarded for one reason or another until this very spot, the perfect place to observe while not being observed, had been selected.
Yes, the eyes had seen it all. The eyes had seen precisely what they had hoped to see. They were like a master puppeteer. They planned, controlled, and observed, but from a safe distance. They did not miss a trick.
The eyes. The deadly eyes of St. Croix.
