Book Description Paperback. Condition: Very Good. 400 pages. Investigating the murder of a Cinncinnati college student, workaholic cop Sonora Blair uncovers the workings of a f emale serial killer and realizes that she has become the next tar get. $20,000 ad/promo. Editorial Reviews From Publishers Weekly In this stygian chiller, Shamus Award-winning Hightower (Satan's Lambs) introduces hardworking Cincinnati homicide cop Sonora Bla ir, a single mom of two who is stalked by a female serial killer obsessed with broken dolls and the act of cremating young male vi ctims alive. When Sonora interrogates the dying Mark Daniels, a c ollege student found handcuffed and set afire in his older brothe r Keaton's car, she is horrified to learn that the perpetrator wa s a young blonde. It quickly becomes evident that Mark's ritualis tic murder was a manifestation of the killer's sexual fixation on Keaton. After the news media reveals Sonora as the officer in ch arge of the case, the killer?nicknamed Flash?phones the cop; soon a strange love/hate relationship develops between the two. Evide nce of Flash's identity leads Sonora down a trail of similar crim es beginning in neighboring rural Kentucky, crossing into West Vi rginia, then southward to Atlanta. When the cop falls into bed wi th Keaton, Flash becomes insanely jealous and starts to menace So nora's kids, then throws caution to the winds to wreak her reveng e. Hightower's prose is functional only, but her pacing is brisk, her characters well drawn and credibly flawed and her plotting d iabolically intriguing from start to finish. $20,000 ad/promo; Ri ghts: William Morris Agency. Copyright 1995 Reed Business Inform ation, Inc. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. From Booklist When college student Mark D aniels returns home to Cincinnati, he makes the mistake of going out for a beer. He's later found naked, handcuffed to his steerin g wheel, and on fire. He dies but not before telling homicide cop Sonora Blair that his killer was a woman. When photos of the vic tim--watching the flames close in--are delivered to his surviving brother, Sonora realizes this is no ordinary criminal. Soon the killer makes contact with Sonora, who has been identified by the media as working on the case. It's apparent that the killer, Selm a, both identifies with and also despises Sonora. Though the seri al killer genre is overworked, Hightower--winner of the 1994 Sham us for Satan's Lambs puts a unique spin on it by inserting female s into the two key roles. The conclusion is extraordinary; it's n ot a shoot-out, though bullets fly. Sonora and Selma reach a meet ing of the minds that will leave readers pondering the thin line differentiating madness from sanity.
