Here’s the set-up for Rachel Howzell’s No One Knows You’re Here, just $3.49 on Kindle:

Three weeks out of cancer surgery, crime reporter Syeeda McKay is in the pursuit of Los Angeles’s most active serial killer. Over the last twenty years, the Phantom Slayer has hunted African-American prostitutes working in one of the worst parts of South Los Angeles, killing eight victims in the alleys off Western Avenue, and then disappearing into the shadows. But Syeeda doesn’t know that the killer has turned his sights on her.

Detective Adam Sherwood, a hotshot investigator with the Robbery-Homicide Division of the LAPD, has been handed the Phantom Slayer cases, and together, he and Syeeda must figure out who is doing the killing . . . before Syeeda becomes his next victim.

From the reviewers:

[Rachel] Howzell is the Sue Grafton of her generation, with a bit more social conscience and street cred.  Like Grafton’s Kinsey Milhone, Syeeda is determined to be her own woman, solving crimes and facing down danger, and protecting her own body — and heart — as ferociously as she hunts down bad guys. — Nina Sankovitch, Read All Day

It was a great fast engaging read. It definitely sends up the creepy red flag. It also made me wonder how much information I share and who I friend on certain social media platforms. I also liked the fact it was inspired by a real cold case serial killer and brought to life the injustice of nameless/faceless victims of horrific crimes that go unsolved because no seems to really care. All life should be valued and their killers should be pursued.  –  L. Chinnery

Great suspense thriller, the end threw me for a loop! Looking forward to what Howzell creates next!  –  “brie867”

This fine mystery novel with a message is set in the African American culture of Los Angeles. The author has obviously lived in the world of which she writes. She is articulate and easily bounces between the have and have-nots.  I found the storyline and characters to be engaging. I did not want to put the book down but I find life is better with occasional sleep. Give this indie author a chance. I, for one, am awaiting her next book.  –  Bill Thibadeau

The author received rave reviews for her debut title, A Quiet Storm:


“Insightful and emphatic, first novelist’s Hall’s portrayal of bipolar disorder and its long-term effects on an African American family grabs readers from the start.” – Starred review from Library Journal

“The author portrays mental illness (including the denial of it) with realism and sensitivity, but what really sets this novel apart is Stacey’s lively narration, which crackles with dark humor, wisdom and self-deprecation.” – Publishers Weekly

“Sibling rivalry and devotion and the pressures that can tear apart a family—and a fledgling marriage—are the subjects of this urgent first novel by a promising African-American writer.” – Oprah Magazine


Rachel Howzell was born and raised in South Los Angeles. An avid reader and lover of books, she received her B.A. in English and American Literature from the University of California at Santa Cruz.

In 2002, Rachel’s first novel, A Quiet Storm, was published by Scriber to great notice, including reviews from O Magazine and Publishers Weekly, with a starred review from Library Journal. A Quiet Storm was also a featured selection for Borders’ Original Voices program, as well as an alternate selection for Black Expressions book club. She published her second novel, The View from Here, in November 2010.
