I am so pleased to be shining the spotlight on this book today.
Hermit of Paradise by Kim Sanders was released earlier this month.
Let me tell you a little about the book...
The Blurb
A Fight for Lost Innocence
Detective Auby Midnight is retired. Or so he imagines. Jaded and transformed by a long career of witnessing degeneracy, tragedy, and true evil, he reflects on the place that first nurtured him: Paradise Cove, Lake Texoma, and the rich, endearing memories of mischief, adventure, and friendship that shaped his childhood. That is, until the day a violent feud brought irrevocable trauma for his best friend, Sunny.Now Sunny implores the wearied Auby to right the wrongs of the past and return to the case that has haunted him and his childhood friends for years. Older, wiser, and far more experienced, they set out to defeat the evil that stole their innocence and restore the magic of Paradise Cove.Inspired by the author's own life events as a sixth-generation Texan and a former member of the Dallas Police Department with decades of experience under his belt, Hermit of Paradise explores meaning, morality, and the fight to stay human in the face of a grim and complicated world.

About the Author
.jpg "kim sanders")
Kim Sanders is a sixth generation Texan who grew up in the South Oak Cliff area of Dallas, Texas. Shortly after finishing his active duty in the US Army, he was hired by the Dallas Police Department, where he worked for thirty-three years. His assignments there included Detention Services, Uniformed Patrol, Vice, Narcotics, and Homicide. He spent twenty-three years in the Narcotics Division, the last fourteen of which were assigned to the United States Drug Enforcement Administration as a Task Force Officer. He was one of the few officers in the US who worked in an undercover capacity across three separate decades. He was the lead undercover officer in three separate deep-cover operations, each of which lasted over a year in duration. His last lead deep-undercover assignment before he transferred to Homicide took him from working in Texas to New York City as he infiltrated complex Colombian heroin cartel networks. Kim has received numerous federal, state, and local awards, including the Dallas Police Department Medal of Valor. Kim is married to fellow retired Dallas Police Detective Martha "Coco" Sanders. They reside in Texas.
