Contents: Publisher's Note:

With a palpable sense of place and characters that range from wittily memorable to the nightmarishly chilling, John Lutz once again creates a superior mystery for his many fans.

In the ninth mystery in the critically acclaimed series, disabled Florida P.I. Fred Carver takes on what may be his most ambiguous and baffling case yet. His new client, Joel Brandt, reminds him of the handsome and deceptively charming mass murderer Ted Bundy -- and that's the least disquieting aspect of the case. Brandt has been charged with stalking Marla Cloy, a woman he claims he's never met, and he hires Carver to find out why she's falsely accusing him. At his wit's end, Brandt is convinced she's out to get him so she can kill hi, claiming self-defense. But why?

When Carver can find no connection between the two and no reason for either's vengeance, he begins to wonder who is stalking whom and finds himself caught in the middle of a deadly game of cat and mouse. A personal crisis that takes Carver and the reader by surprise rounds out this tense and complicated tale.
