SYNOPSIS

The fictional protagonist, John Goodman, is an amalgam of human predation and darkness, carefully stitched from the ragged shreds of multiple serial killers' lives – shadowy predators that have stalked the American landscape for centuries. But though he is fictional, the circumstances of Goodman's dark life are firmly rooted in historical characters and events. "Crazy Is as Crazy Does" begins in 1955 and follows John as he evolves from a timid and disorganized criminal into a powerful mastermind of deception and intimidation. The story takes readers on a journey through the 75-year-old killer's life, ending shortly after the capture of the Golden State Killer in 2018. But like all unreliable narrators, readers are forced to grapple with an important question: Can they accurately separate fact from Goodman's twisted fiction? Readers quickly discover that the real horror unfolding is twofold: the murderous activities described by Goodman himself, and the twisted transformations of those around him – culminating in in a shocking, high stake ending.

A tensely clever, first-person psychological thriller that deep-dives into the world of an experienced serial killer.  Once you enter chapter five the book is written in the first person as John describes his childhood and the diabolical events that unlocked the killer inside him. This book is as graphic as the cover suggests. The e-book is available for purchase via Amazon, and is free for Kindle Unlimited readers. Is is also available through Amazon Audible and is also free to those subscribers. Both are 3.99 each and a paperback is available on both Amazon and Barnes and Noble for 13.99
