Strawberries
by Casey Bartsch
Genre: Thriller, Suspense
Strawberries is the name he has been given.
When they let him out, they had no way of knowing what he was. A
psychopath. A killer. The body count is at twenty already, and there
doesn’t seem to be an end in sight. Agent Harry Bland can’t see
one anyway. He doesn’t have a single clue to go on. It doesn’t
help that his mind won’t focus. His heart just isn’t in it
anymore.

Half way across the country, Sylvia is in a different state of mind. When
she isn’t selling sex to the rich, she is doing her best to
disappear. She lives a life of assumed names, one night stands, and a
constant stream of narcotics.

Sylvia has heard of Strawberries. Of course she has. So has everyone who has
turned on the television or surfed the net. Yet, she has no way of
knowing just how much his life will affect hers.

Seedy hotels, cross country truckers looking for the meaning of life,
homemade pie, a reporter with her own secret agenda, obscenely
expensive champagne, and plenty of spilled blood await our cast. But
make sure to read fast…..Strawberries has killed number 21.

A little Koontz, a splash of Palahniuk, and a pinch of Robbins.
Strawberries is sure to make you wince as well as smile.

Casey Bartsch lives in a tiny Texas town called Belton. He has yet to meet
any of his neighbors, or travel farther than the grocery store. He
doesn’t eat healthy foods, and is therefore a bit rotund. His
girlfriend loves him anyway, and that works out well.

Casey often struggles to find the time to write. That is a lie. The time is
plentiful. He just has a hard time choosing to write when other, less
mentally taxing activities are available. He feels a great deal of
regret each time he makes this wrong choice.

Casey spends an obscene amount of time trying to figure out why people do
what they do, why he does what he does, and how long it might take
before the world implodes in on itself and leaves him stranded on a
small rock floating through the emptiness of space.

Hi there! Sounds like a thrilling read! Just my sort of thing!
Mine too!
Sounds very interesting! One of these days I’ll be able to buy new books and actually read them. I MUST stay away Netgalley 🙂
I hear ya! I’m actually taking in less review books so I can get to my own purchased ones.
Great cover and I love reading about serial killers. Added to my reading shelf.

So do I, Sherry. And that cover is wicked!
Thanks so much for your comments. If any of you message me at casey.bartsch@gmail.com, remind me who you are, I will send you a copy in whatever format you want.
Thanks so much! I sure would like to read it.
The cleverness of the author is definitely revealed in his bio. The book sounds quirky and brilliant!!
Well said, Taylor!
Awesome cover.
It sure is, Anthony!
I can’t pass judgement on the book as I have not yet read it. The art is magnificent! I’d like a different Mountain one or an ocean one.
Well, I do also sell them if you don’t win. I do a lot of them. Sometimes live, but usually I take requests. casey.bartsch@gmail.com if you want more info.
