Publisher's Synopsis
Before 'The Lover' kills again . . . New York cop Joe Keough races against time to crack the case of a serial killer who leaves a flower with each victim. Battling publicity-minded bureaucrats in his own department, Keough is convinced that he has to catch not one psycho but two . . . and the copycat killer is crazier than the original. "Top-notch suspense, right from the chilling prologue to the brutal conclusion." Publishers Weekly "An entertaining, well-written crime novel that stands out on the basis of its shifting points of view, sharp dialogue, humor, and bang-up conclusion." Booklist
