Author to sign new crime thriller May 31

Browseabout Books will host author Marc Avery for a signing of “Discipline,” from 1 to 3 p.m., Saturday, May 31, at 133 Rehoboth Ave., Rehoboth Beach. 

Two homicide detectives track a brazen killer who’s dropping bodies at historical Philadelphia landmarks in this action-packed crime thriller.

Giuseppe “Discipline” Cain is a cold-hearted, calculated and resentful murderer who turns the city into his own personal killing ground. As the death toll rises, city officials and the police department clamor to calm citizens’ fears about this brazen serial killer. When an elected official’s family member is found dead, it seems no one in the city is safe.

Detective Aaden Bravo is a highly decorated officer with a legendary case clearance rate. Detective Christian Bennett is flashy, reckless and a serial womanizer. After Bennett’s transfer to the Philadelphia Police Department’s homicide division, these two starkly contrasting officers are forced to work together. Despite their disdain for each other, their skill sets complement each other. While Bravo is all about the job and Bennett is all about the women, their next case is all about survival.

A Philadelphia native, Avery lives in Delaware with his wife and children.
