Thomas Perry's novels of suspense have been celebrated for their
"dazzling ingenuity" (The New York Times Book Review) and for
writing that is "as sharp as a sushi knife" (Los Angeles Times). By
turns horrifying and erotic, Perry's new thriller takes us on a
dangerous cat-and-mouse game that pits two women against each
other: a beautiful serial killer and the detective who is
determined to stop her.
When the cousin of Los Angeles underworld figure Hugo Poole is
found shot to death in his Portland, Oregon, home, police find
nothing at the scene of the crime except several long strands of
blond hair hinting that a second victim may have been involved.
Hotel security tapes from the victim's last vacation reveal an
out-of-focus picture of a young blond woman entering and leaving
his room. Could she also be a murder victim?
Portland homicide detective Catherine Hobbes is determined to solve
the case and locate the missing blonde, but her feelings, and the
investigation, are complicated when Hugo hires private detective
Joe Pitt to perform a parallel investigation. As the Joe and
Catherine form an uneasy alliance, the murder count rises-and both
realize that the pretty young woman in the security tapes is not a
victim at all.
As Catherine follows the evidence, she finds herself in a deadly
contest with an unpredictable adversary capable of changing her
appearance and identity at will. Catherine must use everything she
knows, as a homicide detective and as a woman, to stop a murderer
who kills on impulse and with ease, and who becomes more efficient
and elusive with each crime.
