Detective Jeremy Fisk tracks a serial sniper who has
mastered state-of-the-art airborne technology to hunt his
prey in this chilling thriller from the New York Times
bestselling author and creator of the Law & Order
franchise. When a leaker named Verlyn Merritt releases sensitive
documents from the NYPD Intelligence Division to
WikiLeaks, some of the deadliest criminals have access to
Detective Jeremy Fisk’s unlisted home address. Within
hours, three mysterious assailants arrive at his Sutton
Place apartment. Who are they and why do they want Fisk
dead? Authorities quickly identify and arrest Merritt. But the
case takes a sinister twist when an anonymous third party
makes threats if authorities don’t release Merritt
immediately. Forced from his home and his bank accounts
drained, Fisk confronts Chay Maryland, a reporter who has
been covering Merritt’s case. Fisk wants the journalist’s
help to get close to the leaker—to find out what Merritt
really wants and who else is involved. The investigation is nearly derailed when a serial sniper
begins shooting people on the street who seem to have no
connection to Merritt’s case. The killer’s aim is eerily
accurate—and Fisk believes the shooter might be using a
drone rigged with unusual sighting capabilities. Then the
sniper contacts the New York Times and promises to kill
one person every day, “for the greater good of the
citizens of America. With the clock ticking and millions of lives at stake,
Fisk and Chay must find the mastermind before he can
wreak havoc on a city paralyzed by fear.
