Eye for Eye

“NEW TWIST ON STRANGERS ON A TRAIN”
~ THE SUNDAY TIMES

Roy and Susie are on a skiing holiday, trying to take a break from the constant reminders of their daughter, tragically killed by a careless driver.

Out of the blue they meet Deb and Tom, another couple with a tragic past and a shocking proposal to put things right.

As the bodies accumulate, secrets are revealed and alliances crumble. Ultimate survival depends on following the rules for a perfect murder. And the first rule is… leave no singing bones.

The Series

Tooth for Tooth (Book 2)

What would YOU do?

What would you do if you got away with murder? Would you stop there? Could you?

Susie and Roy thought that they committed the perfect crime.

Their planning was meticulous. Their execution flawless.

But, there is always a loose end, isn’t there? Always a singing bone.

Now, while enemies multiply and suspicions abound, their perfect world begins to crumble.

The hunters have become the hunted.

Life for Life (Book 3)

What would YOU do if someone threatened your family?

Roy Cruise and his pregnant wife Susie barely survived an assassination attempt in their own home. The police now have them under surveillance. Meanwhile, Kristy Wise is a loose cannon—she knows too much and is trying to “set things right.”

What goes around comes around. And in this case, Roy and Susie may have pushed things too far. There are too many dead bodies. Too many foes plotting against them.

Roy and Susie must outwit the police and neutralize their enemies once and for all. If not, their days of retribution may end behind bars… or six feet under.


My thoughts on Eye For Eye

How far would a parent go to seek revenge for the death of a child? J.K. Franko pulls no punches in his exploration of just that question.

Roy and Susie’s lives are upended when they lose their daughter to a senseless accident. Unable to enact revenge on the person responsible, their inability to act begins to worm into their marriage like rot in a fallen apple.

A chance meeting with another set of parents whose child also endured great trauma, starts the couple on a road of violence and murder.

Full of twists and turns as the reader discovers that nothing in the story is as it seems, Roy and Susie lie to each other and lie to themselves as they plot to commit the perfect crime.

Told from the point of view of an unseen narrator, the acts of violence and the threads that have woven their way into the fabrics of their marriage, become more and more entwined as the story unfolds.

Designed as a trilogy, Eye For Eye is guaranteed to keep you up all night and leave you guessing to the very end.


J.K. Franko, author of Eye For Eye

Eye for EyeJ.K. FRANKO was born and raised in Texas. His Cuban-American parents agreed there were only three acceptable options for a male child: doctor, lawyer, and architect. After a disastrous first year of college pre-Med, he ended up getting a BA in philosophy (not acceptable), then he went to law school (salvaging the family name) and spent many years climbing the big law firm ladder. After ten years, he decided that law and family life weren’t compatible. He went back to school where he got an MBA and pursued a Ph.D. He left law for corporate America, with long stints in Europe and Asia.

His passion was always to be a writer. After publishing a number of non-fiction works, thousands of hours writing, and seven or eight abandoned fictional works over the course of eighteen years, EYE FOR EYE became his first published novel.

J.K. Franko now lives with his wife and children in Florida.

    I read this book, and because it was so good, I ended up binging the entire Trilogy.
