    About this ebook

    In the fourth book of the Godsend series, Echo damn near gets his back broken in a brawl and is later sucker-punched. His anger leads to a high-speed chase with the police out in Santa Barbara--except he's the one chasing the police! He and Brian are investigating the cold case death of a promiscuous woman, and the murderer is hiding right under the nose of the law. Their new California resource--a young woman who gets illegal trade tools for them--is in trouble, and they have just made things worse for her.

    And while he's out in California, Brian decides he might as well track down and confront the crew that took his wallet and pat-searched his 4-year-old daughter in an upscale restaurant a few weeks earlier. The beautiful black woman who will help him get to the bottom of this is one he can see himself with until death do they part. At least that's what happened to her last boyfriend.

    K Elliott

    K. Elliott, aka The Well Fed Black Writer, penned his first novel, Entangled, in 2003. Although he was offered multiple signing deals, Elliott decided to found his own publishing company, Urban Lifestyle Press.Bookstore by bookstore, street vendor by street vendor, Elliott took to the road selling his story. He did not go unnoticed, selling 50,000 units in his first year and earning a spot on the Essence Magazine Bestsellers list.Since Entangled, Elliott has published five titles of his own and two more on behalf of authors signed to Urban Lifestyle Press. For one book, The Ski Mask Way, Elliott was selected to co-author with hip-hop superstar 50 Cent. Along the way, he has continued to look for innovative ways to push his books to his fans while keeping down his overhead. Not wanting to keep such valuable experience to himself, Elliott did two things.First, in 2010 he forged his vision of low-cost publishing by in 21 Black Street, an eBookstore to mirror a traditional African-American themed bookstore - except it could totally cuts out a publisher's printing costs.Second, Elliott created the Well-Fed Black Writer, a blog for authors to find life-hacking tips for more efficient, effective self-publishing. The Well-Fed Black Writer includes podcasts, video and blog posts, all to help aspiring authors turn their manuscripts into publishing success stories.

      Chapter 1

      FBI Criminal profiler Teresa Groove was removing a bag of groceries from the passenger’s seat of her Aston Martin Vantage when she heard a vehicle arrive. She looked up and saw Brian Cathcart’s Durango stopping curbside at her home.

      Brian stepped out of his SUV, still appreciating the beautiful, middle-class neighborhood, then adjusted the ball cap on his head. He walked up Teresa’s driveway wearing jeans, sneakers, and a black leather jacket. It’s been two weeks, Teresa. How long do you plan to be mad at me?

      You can’t undo what you did, so I guess I’ll never stop being mad at you. Why are you here, and how did you know where I live?

      He laughed as he stopped in front of her and took the bag of groceries from her. I’m a private eye; and that should answer both of your questions.

      She reached inside the car and picked up another bag of groceries. That doesn’t tell me why you’re here.

      He said, I’m working on a case and you’re the main suspect, so I’m here to ask you some questions.

      She bumped her car door closed, used the keychain remote to lock the doors, and headed for the front door. That’s scary, because there’s a good chance that I’ll end up dead. Probably stabbed to death once you get a confession out of me.

      He looked back at her car and said, A Vantage. I didn’t know the FBI paid like that. Nice home, two car garage.

      She unlocked her front door. The car is five years old; the home was affordable because it was a government seizure twelve years ago. She entered her home and headed for the kitchen.

      Brian followed her and closed the door. Beautiful place. Will you decorate for me?

      Brian, what the hell do you want? She set the bag on an island counter in her large kitchen.

      He caught up with her and slapped her on the ass with his free hand. I miss you.

      She stepped away. Don’t do that anymore. She stared at him with contempt.

      Brian set the bag on the counter and looked at her. She, too, was in jeans and a jacket. He walked up to her. You look serious.

      She turned around and opened the upper cabinet door.

      Brian slapped her on the ass again, this time even harder, and it sounded off.

      Teresa quickly turned around to protest but saw Brian covering his face with both hands and shrieking away as if guarding himself from a blow she might throw.
