They Came for Him
A mystery thriller from USA Today Bestselling Author, P.D. Workman that will keep you turning the pages!
There’s been some trouble
That was the understatement of the year. A call from private investigator Zachary Goldman’s older sister puts him on to a murder case, but this time he is trying to help the murderer rather than tracking him down.
From the beginning, Zachary has his own ideas of what happened and is confident that he can gather enough evidence and background information to prove that Luke is not guilty of murder. But Luke is not contributing to his own defense and the facts that Zachary uncovers are not what he was expecting.
Zachary begins to doubt whether he knows the real story after all.
But he is not giving up.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This highly suspenseful tale took me on a roller coaster ride of emotion as I feverishly flipped the pages navigating the plentiful twists and turns in hopeful anticipation of Luke being exonerated. P.D. Workman has once again worked her literary magic to produce another story filled with traumatized “imperfect” people facing daunting challenges and somehow managing to survive, prevail and inspire.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ P.D. Workman expertly weaves her way to the centre of a psychological thriller, combined with fascinating characters and events that will grip you firmly by the imagination throughout, in They Came For Him. Make sure you get it today!
Zachary Goldman, Private Investigator, is flawed with a capital F. Shattered by the tragedies of his own life, he will somehow still manage to pick himself up and dig just a little bit deeper than anyone else to piece together the vital clues and solve the mystery.
Maybe being broken makes it easier for others who have faced tragedy to trust him. Walk with Zachary as he solves cases that will stretch his abilities to the limit.
Even with his own life in shambles, Zachary Goldman is still the one you want on the case.

Author Notes may contain spoilers!
I already knew at the end of She Told a Lie that Luke would be getting in trouble again. That’s the reality. As a long-term addict buried as deep in the trafficking business as he was, he had little chance of getting clean and out of it.
He’s been working hard at it. He’s been through rehab. He’s got Joss, who is as experienced as they get, working in his corner. But I had little doubt that at some point, he would step over the line. And there have been hints at that in the last few books.
You may wonder why Zachary puts up with Joss’s angry and bitter attitude toward him. Of course he feels guilty for what she has gone through, believing that she would not have been trafficked if she hadn’t been put into foster care when he burned the house down. But there’s more to it than that. Even with Joss’s angry jabs, she and Zachary are bonded with each other, she helped to care for him when no one else did, and she is more of a mother figure than his own long-lost mother. There is a special close relationship between them, no matter how angry and irritable Joss acts.
In this book, maybe you will see a little bit of that and Joss’s well-hidden softer side.
