Eight burglaries. Three terrified security guards. And something watching from the hills.
When private investigator Jim Knighthorse is hired to look into a string of mysterious break-ins at an upscale Southern California neighborhood, the job sounds simple enough: patrol the streets, keep an eye on the houses, and figure out why every security guard before him has quit in fear.There’s just one problem.
Something is out there.
Residents whisper about a tall, shadowy figure watching from the hills. Strange things happen after dark. Dogs bark for no apparent reason. And the deeper Jim digs into the burglaries, the more convinced he becomes that whoever is breaking into these homes isn’t interested in money.
Then Jim and his dog, Junior, make a discovery in the hills that changes everything.
Human remains.
Suddenly, a routine security job becomes a murder investigation, and a trail that has been cold for decades begins leading Jim toward secrets buried beneath the quiet neighborhood.
Someone knows what happened in those hills.
Someone has been searching for something.
And whatever is watching from among the ancient trees may not be there to frighten Jim away.
It may be trying to help him.
NIGHT WATCH is the latest Jim Knighthorse mystery from bestselling author J.R. Rain, featuring a decades-old murder, a present-day mystery, a loyal dog, and one hard-hitting private investigator who absolutely refuses to admit he’s working as a security guard.
