Add to basketThirteen bodies are discovered inside a small Louisville restaurant just after closing time. The ferocity and apparent randomness of the crime prompt the police to call in criminology professor Daniel Millikan-they want a profile of the murderer. Millikan determines that the crime was committed not by a psychopath but by a professional killer of consummate skill and total lack of feeling: %u201CI think that the one who did it is one of the special cases. He%u2019s somebody we can%u2019t afford to have walking down a street where our families walk.%u201D When Millikan learns that the investigation has come to a complete standstill, he commits himself to an unorthodox decision. The only hope of stopping this killer and ending the bloodshed is to employ Roy Prescott, an expert in the narrow specialty of hunting down murderers through methods the police can%u2019t-and wouldn%u2019t-use. And so begins a stunning novel by Thomas Perry, %u201Cone of the most thoroughly satisfying writers around%u201D (Lawrence Block), a death match fought from one end of the country to the other by two enemies who both understand that only one of them will be alive at the end. Former library book. Mylar protector included. Moderate edgewear on the boards. Moderate shelf wear.
