Brush Creek Charlie by D. B. Reynolds (best free e book reader .TXT) đź“•
Excerpt from the book:
Charles “Charlie The Machete” Rastelli is a shellshocked Vietnam War veteran who lives with serious post traumatic stress disorder. Charlie’s self-esteem is shattered by the fact that he suffered from genital mutilation from ammunition crossfire while serving in Vietnam. His life has spiraled far out of control. An engineering marvel known as Brush Creek is where he has always found his piece of solitude.
Brush Creek is an east to west stretch of creek sewage, woods, wildlife, and concrete jogging trails. Failure to kill a certain woman becomes his pretext to building a murderous resume. Charlie lures women from prominent working class to prostitutes and drug addicts to his apartment. Strangulation is his method of murder. A Full Tang Monster Machete is his method of mutilation. His victim’s bodies are transported in trashbags and dumped in Brush Creek.
Members of an all-women support group are determined to put an end to the killing cycle fueled by Charlie. These diligent women consolidate resources and power with law enforcement to try and make sure that more bodies won’t surface anymore in Brush Creek. Will Charlie meet up with the specter of death when he decides to go too far? It’s a serious race against time to end a psychopath’s homicidal escapades.

on him. A stoned, flushed face and bloody red eyes were the exterior effects of the gas. Overstreet and Carey bent down to take a strong look at the man they’d wanted to apprehend many months ago.
Sandy and Carol stood on the opposite side looking down on the sicko who’d caused them a mound of anguish. Members of S.A.V.E. were by their side to share in the victory. Their fear of being his next victim was finally over. Those from the media were held off until Overstreet was satisfied with processing the crime scene. The S.W.A.T. team kept their rifles drawn on Charlie as though he had enough strength to take on an army.
Charlie was only minutes away from his death. Calling an emergency medical crew would’ve done no good. A heaving chest and clusters of saliva bubbles indicated he drew closer to dying.
Before checking out, he had some final words. “I’m going to die a happy man. And do you know why I’m going to die a happy man?”
“Why?” Overstreet asked, watching a totally disturbed man about to die before his very eyes.
“My final resting place is going to be down here in Brush Creek. You didn’t know, but I had it planned this way all this time.”
“Charlie, can I ask you something before you leave us?”
“Ask me anything.”
“What is your real obsession with Brush Creek?”
Charlie’s heaving intensified. “Brush Creek is paradise here on Earth. Like The Garden of Eden in The Bible was Adam and Eve’s paradise, Brush Creek was always my Earthly paradise.”
“But why? This place is nothing but woods and concrete and wildlife and raw sewage water.”
“Those are the beauty of it all.”
Overstreet watched Charlie draw closer to taking his last breath. “But why did you kill all four of the women that you did?”
“Women, they’re the real enemies. They’ve made mockeries of us men.”
Charlie heaved stronger and stronger until he spoke his last three words. “Goodbye, Brush Creek.”
Sandy Barnholtz crossed herself as she watched workers from the morgue take away the body of Charles “Charlie The Machete” Rastelli.
