My third mystery/thriller in my series, "Letters from the Dead," finds the two brothers from the previous novels, one a NYC detective and the other a Jesuit priest, tracing down a serial killer bent on revenge for his daughter’s cyber-bullying suicide. "Letters from the Dead" was one of six finalists in the 2013 International Readers’ Favorite Book Awards in the category Fiction – Mystery – Thriller. The judge’s comment in the 21st Annual Writer’s Digest Annual Self-Published Book Awards stated: “LETTERS FROM THE DEAD by George R. Hopkins is a complex, riveting story that thriller readers will want to check out today! The plot is complex and keeps readers sticking with the story. The writing moves the story along well. The way the book is set up is different, but it works. This author has definitely given us a superb entry to the thriller category. Nice job!” "Letters from the Dead" was recently awarded second place in the Reader Views Literary Contest in the category Mystery/Thriller/Suspense.
