Douglass Randall Coleman Jr. sees in himself a special kid armed with a winning smile and a ‘killer reflection’. Growing up in an urban chaos filled with abuse and drugs, he soon proceeds on his own journey of excess and crime. Dr. Olivia Reed, his psychiatrist, is torn between her own deadly secrets, her fascination for Douglass and professional doubts on what ails him. On the other hand, Tara Walker, his online date, considers Douglass to be her perfect man, oblivious to the monster hiding underneath. The first taste of blood sends Douglass into a frenzy and he wants more, not aware that there is another figure lurking in the shadows who is planning his downfall.
Fans of urban fiction will relish Cheryl’s unique story telling technique that paints an uncanny, real-life portrait of a serial killer. The readers will be able to relive the scenes in the book from the perspective of the killer, his psychiatrist, his victims, or the detectives on the case. ‘A Killer’s Reflection’ is a rare erotic, psychological thriller that will appeal to the raw senses of the readers.
“Cheryl Denise Bannerman, when writing Doug’s perspective, forges a clear image of his character and personality, and when later she approaches Tara’s perspective creates an amazing account of how Tara’s behavior would alter and her mannerisms change to ensure she didn’t do anything to anger him. The alteration in characters is clear and real. ‘A Killer’s Reflection’ touches on serious issues, and makes for a page turning read,” says K. Simmill for Readers’ Favorite.

In her spare time, Cheryl Powell loves to read murder mysteries, attend museums, watch movies, try new restaurants and cuisines, shop with her daughter, and take in the sun on the beach. And, although this author’s works are fiction, she has incorporated many of her personal life’s experiences into their stories.
