Book Cover & Preview Text
Just as he was about to slide the window shut, he heard a bird call that struck a chord in his heart. It wasn’t something you heard every day in the big city. It was the high piercing call of a bird of prey. He stuck his head out the window and looked up over the rooftops. There! Soaring in a graceful circle overhead was a Red-tailed Hawk. Images of his college days came flooding through the window, filling the room. He instantly recognized the bird because in college he minored in wildlife management. It was his second dream. An odd minor for a criminal investigation major, he knew. But for him it worked. Why then, had he left that part of his dream life behind?
“Damn! I don’t need these distractions!” he shouted at the bird.
The bird performed another graceful circle, dipped down towards the man at the window, then arched up and disappeared into the diminishing sunset.
Sliding the window shut, he finished his preparations and left. Maybe the sighting of the hawk was a good omen. He pulled his apartment door shut, locked it and headed out into the night.
