A Goodreads user asked J.D. Barker:

I would like to add to the kudos here. Like others, I do not have a question but would like to let you know the 4MK series is fantastic. It has been a long time that an author has written a book that I just can't put down. Dracul was simply amazing. I don't know how I found Forsaken, but when I read it, I knew I found my new favorite author. Thank you for writing amazing stories. As required by Goodreads - ?

J.D. Barker Thank you! Hearing that kind of thing makes it all worthwhile.

One of the things that drew me to your novel before I read it was that it was described as a mix between Se7en and The Silence of the Lambs. Did either of those novels/films inspire you in any way? If not specifically those, was there another source that kickstarted/impacted this novel idea? I teach Detective Fiction Studies and would love to share your response with my class! Thank you!
