The Devil's Teardrop
1 journaler for this copy...
It's Washington, D.C.; it's the last night of the year, and people are dying....
At 9 am on New Year's Eve a man gets onto the packed escalator of a metro station and fires a silenced machine gun into the crowd. He escapes without being spotted in the confusion caused by the horror of this vicious attack, which leaves dozens of people killed and injured.
One hour later, a note is delivered to the mayor: twenty million dollars, or the writer will instruct the killer to strike again; at 4 pm, at 9 pm, at midnight... hundreds more will die.
The money has to be found, the ransom will have to be paid. But then a hit-and-run victim is identified as the mastermind behind the operation, and suddenly there's no way of stopping the psychotic gunman killing again, and again, and again...
The only thing the FBI have to go on is the note. Parker Kincaid, forensic document expert, and agent-in-charge, Margaret Lukas, could be the only people who can stop the killer."
It was the first book by Jeffery Deaver I've read with Parker Kincaid as a protagonist, and I am enthusiastic!! When the next book featuring him?
