Synopsis

HIS MOST EFFECTIVE THRILLER TO DATE. . . [A] COMPELLING READ.'
--The Seattle Times

For five years Seattle journalist Anne Jeffers has pursued the horrifying story of a sadistic serial killer's bloody reign, capture, trial, and appeal--crusading to keep the wheels of justice churning toward the electric chair. Now the day of execution has come. A convicted killer will meet his end. Anne believes her long nightmare is over. But she's dead wrong. . . .

'ELECTRIFYINGLY SCARY.'
--San Jose Mercury News

Within days, a similar murder stuns the city. As the butcher stalks his next victims, creeping ever closer to her, Anne is seized by an icy unease, a haunting sense of connection to these unspeakable crimes. And, relentlessly, she hears the eerie echo of the dead man's last words to her: 'Today won't end it. How will you feel, Anne? When I'm dead, and it all starts again, how will you feel?'

'ONE OF SAUL'S BEST.'
--Publishers Weekly
