Chilling thriller!
Starta has done it again with this great story. He fills his plots with clues that will keep the reader guessing. I like how it has many layers, not just to the mystery, but the characters as well. Carter and Seacrest are in the middle of a case involving politics and serial murders. It's an interesting prequel in the Stanford Carter series, and it tells a good story about the beginnings of Carter and Seacrest.
