'A taut, edgy thriller. Grabs you by the guts in the first chapter and slow squeezes the breath out of you until the very last line.'

But now a string of child murders brings an unexpected invitation from the FBI, and his old boss.A serial killer is roaming the South, preying on children appearing in pageants.
