Don't Touch the Butterflies is the first in the crime thriller genre for me, and I am so proud of it. I hope it sparks a debate over the defects in our justice system, as well as ethics in media. Of course the critical dialog should be about how we regard crime in today's society. The demons that hide in the shadows don't have claws or razored teeth. They are sometimes our neighbors, our loved ones, our best friends, but thankfully it's more often an outsider we will never meet. With news available at our fingertips, our snap judgments breed evil as quick as our apathy, creating more sufferers to be forgotten. How many must be lost before you have blood on your hands?
Lady Justice is blind. . .until you become the victim.
Detective Walls is on the case of his life since he started working as a homicide detective with the Lubbock County Sheriff's Office, but others want it for their own agenda when teenager Charlotte Strum is found brutally murdered in a country field. Suddenly, a small West Texas town is turned upside down, creating a wave that rattles the nation in search of the killer. The suspects in the case aren't found - instead they are made, and their conviction is sealed by public opinion and the media before their trial even begins. Though beneath it all is a case glued together by satanic panic and political corruption. Walls fights to have the evidence find the killer, but it's an uphill battle that risks creating more victims, threatening everyone's innocence.
Will his efforts stop the killer in time from striking again?
