Billboard tycoon Oliver Mercer has been brutally slain in his home in the Pasadena hills, joined in death by his long-legged trophy girlfriend–both of their bodies displayed in a chilling tableau. The murder scene reawakens terrible memories for homicide detective Nan Vining, who survived her own harrowing attack a year earlier. While tracking the taunting game-player her daughter Emily dubbed T. B. Mann–The Bad Man–she is now working the Mercer case alongside her ex-flame Jim Kissick, stirring up conflicted feelings in Nan. From the ritzy estates of L.A.’s Lamborghini-driving set to a rocky desert outpost where rattlesnakes whisper murder, Nan will risk both her badge and her heart on a case that cuts close to the bone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eFrom the Compact Disc edition.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Books on Tape, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47095031005424,"sku":"9781415947098","price":22.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781415947098_p0.jpg?v=1763726188","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781415947098","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
