Two States One Killer

Book One in the Philippa Fraiser Detective Series

Baz Swoon is on the brink of the biggest deal of his life when two brutal murders shatter rural Maine — and all the evidence points straight at him.

His wife, Melanie, already wary of his secrets and long absences, questions the man she thought she knew.

Detective Philippa Fraiser heads south to North Carolina, and together with Lieutenant Marquez, they uncover a pattern too precise to be a coincidence. Someone is orchestrating the perfect frame — always one step ahead.

As Baz’s world unravels, his reputation, marriage, and freedom hang by a thread. But the deeper Philippa digs, the clearer it becomes. This isn’t just a setup.

The killer is studying everyone.

Perfect for fans of fast-paced psychological thrillers packed with twists, suspicion, and relentless tension.

Here is what the readers say…

 “Wow! A page turner of a read, one not to disappoint. If you enjoy tense twisty thrillers then this could be right up your street. Set in the USA it's a gripping, thrilling read of , you guessed it, two murders, very cleverly crafted and plotted by both Alistair and the killer (think they may be in cahoots!). The plot twists and turns and even when the perpetrator is revealed there is still plenty for the reader to enjoy in the twisty man and victim hunt. The first in a series this is developing nicely with the lead detective very likeable. Perhaps in the next one we could get to know a little more about her own life as in this one she is out of state and work focussed and only a little of her character has been revealed. This in no way takes away from the enjoyment of the read. For me this is Alistair's best work yet, showing a skill in evolving plots and scenarios. A brilliant piece of writing, a stunning read. Looking forward to the next one!”
