Publisher Description
He mutilates his victims. Slices their throats. And carves an X into their flesh. Five years ago, he claimed the lives of six women. Then the killings abruptly stopped - no one knows why. Ex-homicide detective Frank Quinn remembers. Which is why he's shocked to see one of the dead women in his office. Actually, she's the identical twin of the last victim, and she wants Quinn to find her sister's murderer. But when the cold case heats up, it attracts the media spotlight - and suddenly the killings start again...
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
A page-turner to the nail-biting end, the fifth Frank Quinn investigation (after 2009's Urge to Kill) will leave readers breathless. After leaving the NYPD, Frank Quinn created his own investigation agency, joined by his former partner, Larry Fedderman, and his former lover, Pearl. Five years before, the notorious serial killer called the Carver claimed his last victim, Tiffany Keller. The cops have given up on catching the murderer, so Tiffany's twin, Chrissie, begs Quinn to reopen the case. Then Chrissie disappears, and the Carver starts killing again. Slimy police commissioner Harley Renz warns Quinn to back off of his investigation, but Quinn, Fedderman, and Pearl know they may be the only ones who can stop the killer. Misleading clues and dramatic suspense will keep readers pondering the intricacies of this twisty, creepy whodunit long after the last page is turned.
