About the Book
It's been a bad week for homicide detective Jake Roberts. In a late night firefight, Jake kills a shooter in a
ski mask firing an AR-15. Jake is wounded. The mask is removed and the shooter
is a sixteen-year old girl. Per precinct policy, Jake is required to see the division’s
shrink, Dr. Thaddeus Abrams. Leaving Abram’s office abruptly, he passes
stunning flight attendant Lori Powers in the outer office. Later that night,
Dr. Abrams is murdered. Jake’s investigation begins with questioning Abram’s
patients including Lori. During her questioning, he finds he is attracted to
her. Not long after, Jake begins seeing Lori, and they fall in love. Jake and
FBI profiler Mika Scott link Abrams’ death to a rash of serial killings. The cold trail they’re on ignites
into flames when Jake realizes who the killer is. Will Jake get there in time
to stop her from fleeing her last murder?

Fiction and Psychological Thrillers
“Cary
Allen Stone is a brilliant writer of psychological thrillers and murder
mysteries. He writes with a keen eye for detail–the graphic violence is
chillingly realistic. He delivers a taut, darkly introspective, cunning and
well-executed plot by leaning towards the fallible side of his characters. He
understands the criminal mind avoiding the stereotypes that dominate crime
thrillers. There is a good balance of chemistry and conflict, good and evil
that fans will find enthralling. His characters become embedded in our psyches and
the pace of his unraveling of his thriller is a ride not easily forgotten. Cary
Allen Stone is an important name to watch. This is one superb crime writer!”

My backstory is, I spent almost forty years inside the cockpits of
corporate jets and airlines and because of it I acquired a unique perspective
of life. I was fortunate in 1992 to fly Sir Ridley Scott on a location scout in
the islands. We talked about writing and building an image inside the words. He
was quite a mentor.
Before all of that, I graduated from high
school with a JD, juvenile delinquent, and from college with a Bachelor of
Arts. I was lucky to be involved in some feature films in LA and Indie films in
Phoenix. I got to play the bad guy. I have done voice-over, radio commercials,
and standup comedy magic. I represented the USA alongside nine other countries
in the Night of Magic in Bogota, Colombia performing before dignitaries,
ambassadors and their families.
For my “Stealing Atlanta,” I received the
endorsements of Clive Cussler and Tim Dorsey. My first published work was a
true crime story titled, “Through a Mother’s Eyes.” It was a case study of
parents who murder their children. I had a friend who murdered her six-year-old
son and I did a case study of the tragedy. Respected expert, Dr. Philip Resnik,
said it was the best layman’s book on the matter of “filicide.” The book has a
worldwide reach, and is intended to prevent another tragedy. Book Bub did a
promotion on it and 14,976 books went out in a day.
I’m a proud member of the oldest women’s
writers club in the country, the Phoenix Writer’s Club, begun by women
reporters in the 1920s. I also know what the CocaCola recipe is.
His series The Jake Roberts Novels has
been well received by Amazon Hall of Fame Top 10 Reviewers in crime fiction and
psychological thrillers from whom he receives 5–Star reviews. Action adventure
author Clive Cussler and South Florida author Tim Dorsey endorsed Stealing
Atlanta, his cybercrime thriller. His first published work, Through a Mother’s
Eyes a true crime story, was a case study of “filicide” the parental murder of
children. His subject was a friend of his who murdered her six-year-old son.
The research took four years to complete, which included time spent in the
correctional facility where Julie was incarcerated. Through a Mother’s Eyes has
a worldwide reach. Cary’s hopes are that the story will help to prevent future
tragedies from happening and to date he has received several correspondences of
success.
