Description
Detective Mike Calvert returns to the Austin Police Department from his retirement two years ago to help his former partner, Frank Murphy, solve the case of a serial killer who has killed in three states. The psychotic murderer is a twin who harbors resentment towards his birth parents and proceeds to go on a killing spree that leaves four sets of twins dead. Other university students are terrorized and killed as Nathan Harrison, AKA The Silencer in this suspense thriller, terrorizes the university community in Austin, Texas. His MO includes slicing his victims’ throats, running a metal stake through their chest cavities, and tying them up in a symbolic gesture of perpetual enmeshment. The deranged assassin eludes the APD, FBI, and Detectives Calvert and Murphy, continuing his senseless rampage. Mike’s intelligent and beautiful wife, Kim, is abducted by Harrison and flown to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, where she is held hostage. Follow Mike Calvert as he attempts to save his wife and bring the gunman to justice. The beautiful town of Cabo and its people serve as a backdrop for the last third of this suspense thriller that will leave the reader in shock.
