 "Arnold's writing style is very close to JD Robb's "In Death" series..."
--Karen DeLabar, Blogger and Book Reviewer

"Here's one new fan of Madison Knight who recommends you meet her in Ties That Bind...Fantastic Suspense!"
--GA Bixler Reviews

"A fast paced crime novel with surprising twists and turns....This detective series has a Law and Order feel to it and the suspense keeps the novel flying."
--The Kindle Book Review

Detective Madison Knight concluded the case of a strangled woman an isolated incident. But when another woman's body is found in a park killed with the same line of neckties, she realizes they're dealing with something more serious.

Despite mounting pressure from the Sergeant and Chief to close the case even if it means putting an innocent man behind bars, and a partner who is more interested in saving his marriage than stopping a potential serial killer, Madison may have to go it alone if there's not going to be another
victim.

Ties that Bind is the 1st installment of the best-selling police procedural Madison Knight Series.

Approximately 77,000 words

**Includes a preview of JUSTIFIED, the 2nd in the Madison Knight series and a #1 Kindle Best Seller in the Police Procedural genre on Amazon**

THE DETECTIVE MADISON KNIGHT MYSTERY SERIES falls neatly into the police procedural and detective hard-boiled mystery genres with murder investigations and forensics. Think Law & Order meets CSI. There is some foul language and limited graphic violence.
