I haven't read a Tommy Thompson Mystery before. However, this chapter sounds like a great beginning of a personal mystery for the protagonist. I love the occult aspect of the story. The police force will be fighting against principalities. I can't wait to see how it's done. Interesting beginning. Best wishes in the contest.

This is a great story that starts with a personal, up-close death. Shocking and sad, but also reassuring in the way that Tom does not just go home a grieve, he decides to fight back by coming out of retirement (didn't catch his age) and actively participating in the search for his daughter's murderer (s).
Good, fast-moving narrative, and live, interesting characters.
Please send me a note when you post the next chapter.

I think the worst possible death that could happen would be the ritualistic death of one's daughter, I know my first thing I'd want would be justice, and the second would be if I carried it out, So this detective comes out of retirement to solve the murder, but my question is how old is he to have a 12-14 year old daughter?but the scene is set for a great story, well done, blessings Roy
Typo : I keep it cold (it) here. In?

Wow, this is so professional! The structure of the story is superb, the beginning immediately captures the reader's attention, and the main protagonist has an interesting voice. Keep writing :) This story announces itself very well.
