Reviews:
"A sadistic killer who devises ever more ghastly and gruesome methods of slaughtering his victims, a female cop dealing with chauvinistic colleagues, and a cat and mouse game of life or death. The pace is brisk, the characters believable and the ending satisfying." 4 star review from Amazon
"The author shows amazing skill as she cleverly weaves so much into the story...At around 40,000 words, it sits comfortably as a novella and can be read in about three to four hours. Once you start it you won't want to put it down, so be warned to allocate sufficient uninterrupted time!" 5 star review from a Top 100 reviewer, Amazon UK
A Killer Goes Public
A cunning, vicious serial killer stalks the glamorous Meatpacking district in lower Manhattan. Bored with killing in secret, he raises the stakes by leaving cryptic clues in his victims' own blood.
A Cop in the Cross-Hairs
Detective Ellie Danson is tapped to tag along with an investigator from the Homicide Squad at Manhattan South, due to her knowledge of the city's red-light districts. When the killer develops a fascination with her that comes to border on obsession, Ellie begins to wonder just how high a price she'll have to pay to draw him out.
Closing the Circle
As she closes in on the killer, his kills become even more gruesome, violating every rule of common decency in his quest for inspiration. With her life hanging in the balance, Ellie manages to bend a few rules of her own, leading to shocking revelations and a desperate, final confrontation that only one will survive.
