Express Theme 

      Thus the theme is " finding the answers to your problem is like a puzzle." which in fact links all or at lest most of my books. With each book having to find clues to find said killer, or vires location. Book 1 Brimstone, the puzzle was finding a killer with no hands, or in Book 3 Tyr. Canyon with the puzzle being finding the location of a dead or lost body of a T-Rex. Last book for the puzzle was the location or finding a cure for a illness that lead into finding a location of a lab.
