Drawing Blood

Sutton Mills is not a detective, a private eye, or a vigilante. He is not a crusader. He is a man with an insatiable love of puzzles, an aspiring student of Art, an admirer of women. But that is not all that Sutton Mills is. Sometimes, when the police are unable to help, Sutton might step in to offer assistance... for a price. Tall, good looking, physically fit, with long dark hair, he has had some success in recovering stolen items... and even a missing person or two. But when he wakes in a mouldy, dark room, he has no idea who his kidnappers are or why they have abducted him. In the wake of the murder of his long-time friend Gavin Thompson, Sutton was too busy puzzling over the items left to him in his friend's will: a lockbox, and a list of names. The lockbox has no key, and the list of names is without an accompanying note of explanation. Why was Gavin murdered? Was he in trouble? And if he was, why did he not come to Sutton for help? Only after a daring escape is Sutton able to turn his mind toward tracking down his abductors, and finding out who killed his friend...
