Some Days You Get the Bear

The bear is on the prowl in many different guises.

He may be the master thief stealing into Graceland, an intense young passenger experimenting in terror, or a psychiatrist haunted by his patient's nightmare.  Or maybe he's beautiful, lethal woman in a blood-red scarf.

In an Oregon print shop, a patient hit man orders flyers for a lost dog while sizing up his mark. He is the dapper attorney who never steps into a courtroom and never loses an innocent client. Look closely at the weary ex-cop nursing bourbon in a Manhattan saloon while a smiling killer buys a round for the house.

Never trust the mild research chemist in white gloves who turns two warring mobs against each other. So beware of the this huge, dangerous beast.  Because first he will enthrall you.. and then he will strike.
