"An American covert agent finds himself out in the cold after his investigation into a terrorist attack goes awry. Meanwhile, his partner hunts the killer of a fellow agent and runs into opposition from the highest levels of the NSA"--Adapted from cover description.

"You're strutting along, maybe even enjoying tempting fate, and then oops! you slip on a banana peel."-Alo Nudger It is impossible not to respond warmly and with affection to John Lutz's rather hapless private investigator, Alo Nudger. In this, his tenth attempt to make order in the chaos of the world around him, he is coerced by a very young, fearless, feckless pixie of a colleague named Lacy Tumulty to take over a case that she's too busy to handle. It's an easy assignment, but Nudger's agreement to help with the case is a reluctant one. Lacy, charming as she is, has a way of being followed by trouble. The client is a man who wants to prove his daughter was murdered. The police won't do it, so he has hired Lacy, who enlists Nudger. The daughter, alone in her locked house, tripped on the stairs, fell, fractured her skull, and died. Seems to Nudger it's almost robbery to take the man's money. But all is not what it seems. Lacy is beaten by an unknown assailant and devilishly crippled by the severing of an Achilles tendon. Even the delightful Claudia Bettencourt, to whom Nudger is "not married, but attached," becomes imperiled. But however much trouble this new adventure causes for Nudger and his friends, Lutz sees to it, as he has in his hero's previous escapades, that we readers profit mightily from the enjoyment this likable detective brings us."

Subway derailments, plummeting elevators, collapsing construction cranes, apartment explosions--all creating a bloody, senseless puzzle.

But Quinn will have to risk everything he holds precious to bring in this killer. . .

From New York Times bestselling author John Lutz, a brutal and brilliant Frank Quinn novel

A former homicide detective specialising in tracking serial killers, Frank Quinn is a highly decorated ex-cop. And now his niece, Carlie Hobbs, needs help. A blonde, blue-eyed beauty, Carlie fits the victim profile of the killer who's been terrorising women - leaving them bound, gagged and tortured with surgical precision.

The infamous transsexual serial killer known as Daniel Danielle escapes from prison during a Florida hurricane and Frank Quinn fears he has returned and is wreaking havoc as the body count rises. Or it could be a copy cat killer working with stunning originality but whoever it is, this evil force must be stopped before another victim is claimed.
