Thriller
In a savvy, stylish thriller debut perfect for anyone who
loves the crime novels of Michael Connelly or Nevada Barr,
Gil Reavill unravels a chilling tale of murder and mayhem
among humans and their closest evolutionary relatives—a
primate family that may just be too close for comfort.
As a wildfire rages outside the Odalon Animal Sanctuary in
the rugged Santa Monica foothills, the retired Hollywood
movie chimpanzees housed there are shot and left for dead.
When Malibu detective Layla Remington reaches the grisly
scene the next morning, she’s deeply disturbed—and even
more
confused. The victims are not human, so the attack cannot
be
classified as homicide. Yet someone clearly wanted these
animals dead, and executed them with ruthless efficiency.
Miraculously, there is one survivor: a juvenile male named
Angle.
But as Layla reaches the veterinarian’s office where Angle
is recovering, a man with rock-star good looks and a
laid-back Southern California attitude swoops in and
removes
him. And just like that, an unusual case turns truly
bizarre. Soon reports surface of ferocious attacks against
Odalon employees . . . with Angle as the prime suspect. As
a
wave of senseless violence reaches its apex, Layla chases
a
mystery man and his chimp—but everything comes back to
that
terrible night at the sanctuary.
