Description
Suspected of killing at least 50 young women in the Seattle-Portland area in the 1980s, the Green River Killer has never been caught--until now. Here, bestselling author Thorp takes the reader into the minds of both a detective fighting personal demons and a human demon whose wanton disregard for human life is so despicable his actions and motivations make the reader cringe. Thorp has imagined a surprise ending to his roller-coaster thriller that is genuinly surprising.
