Legendary homicide detective Jack Dantzler has never failed to solve a murder. Thirty-three killers apprehended, tried, convicted. Perfect -- like God's soul. But Dantzler's perfection ends when three... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I bought the book on a recommendation and was not disappointed!! For me, I live in the town where the action takes place and it was a unique experience to know the places referenced. Based on my satisfaction with this book, I also read Devil's Racket, also enjoyable. I look forward to the next one!! The character of Jack Danzler, homicide detective is flawed and fascinating. His intelligence and tracking skills are intertwined with his unresolved history, all of which make him complex and compelling. If there were a movie (I plan these in my head!) I would have either George Clooney/Josh Hopkins play Jack and Ashley Judd play the female lead character, Laurie.
A must read!

I don't normally read fiction. However, this is a great read. Easy, fast paced and a thriller. Being from Lexington Kentucky certainly helps because you know all the sights and sounds. Granted, there are numerous cliches and so forth throughout the book. However, what is going to be different I ask? Got a brain warped individual stalking young attractive women. Come on, you know the scene. However, enough suspense is built in to keep you reading. I know, I know, the detectives are all the same. Lost his mother, no wife, drinks, has sex with another detective, shabily dressed you have read it before. However, this book is fun. I look forward to another book from this local author.
