ABOUT THE AUTHOR
CATT DAHMAN has
been writing for more than 30 years. Along the way, she has been a public
speaker, a director for a charity, a waitress, a researcher, an interior
designer, and a retail clothing sales person and have even dabbled as a PI. She has taught in public schools, private schools, and college. Both her degrees are from Texas A&M where she took courses such as criminal psychology, deviant behavior, abnormal psychology, sexual psychology, and criminal investigation. She is proud to be a native of Texas, and has traveled all over the US, and now back in Texas--in Fort Worth with her husband, son, 7 cats, a dog, and a ferret. Being a mom has been the best job ever. She now writes full time, working on horror, thrillers, sci fi, and criminal investigation series: a mixture of dinosaurs to serial killers, to zombies to sharks to vampires to weird westerns, to time travel, to all things spooky. She likes any story she can turn dark and chilling; she often hears that she is "a gory, scary writer" which is fine with her.

In 1974, a crime wave shakes a small town as children
are murdered while camping with their scout troops or parents; a few were
kidnapped. A young deputy, Virgil McLendon, is forced to lead an investigation
into the brutal murders while a nation watches, wondering at his new
techniques.
No one has heard of profiling and few know how to read
a crime scene. Eventually, these methods will shape the new Behavioral Analysis
Unit of the FBI, but in 1974, they are thought to be strange.
Virgil McLendon feels he is chasing ghosts as the
killers kidnap young people, torture victims, leave a trail of dead campers,
and seek to shock an entire town with the bloodshed and cruelty. As the body
count rises, he feels the answers are close. Maybe far too close.
Each act is more violent the last, and the serial
killers decide to go after the local law enforcement department as well. It's a
battle of brains, and nothing is as it seems.
Of Blood and Water explores "nature vs. nature",
family traditions, the beginnings of a new way to track criminals that will be
called behavioral analysis, and the last of the innocence, as a nation changes.
The face of justice will be turned aside, and vengeance may rule the case.
The Oklahoma campground murders, a true crime case,
adds reality as McLendon pushes self-doubt away, and chases the killers.
The first in the Virgil McLendon series, Of Blood and
Water, is where the deputy begins learning how to hunt criminals...and where he
gains a taste for the chase.
