Former detective Karin Schaeffer retired after her husband
and 3-year-old daughter are brutally murdered. Martin Price
is known as the Domino Killer and tagged by the police as
JPP for "just plain psycho." Entire families are murdered
and number clues are left by an arrangement of dominoes.
Karin was the arresting officer to incarcerate JPP and he
wreaked his revenge upon her when he escaped from prison.
Moving from New Jersey to New York, Karin fights to find a
way to live again after her world is destroyed. Then she
receives a call from her former partner that the psychotic
killer has again escaped and coming after her. When JPP
enters her apartment, Karin is resigned to dying to be with
her family, until she realizes his intent is to kill ALL of
her family. Karin barely escapes with her life, and JPP
again evades capture. Clues suggest that her young niece,
Susanna is the next target. Karin, with help from most of
the police force, finally imprisons JPP. Then Susanna
disappears from her birthday party, and the reign of terror
begins again when they discover JPP has a partner.
If you love suspense and excitement (and your heart can
take it!), then this is the chilling thriller you have been
waiting for. The tension and heartache Karin suffers brings
tears to your eyes as the terror ripples through your body.
This book is too exciting and thrilling to put down until
the last page is read. I definitely look forward to
Katia Lief's next story in this series. What a
sensationally gifted writer!
Former Detective Karin Schaeffer has nothing left to
live for after serial killer Martin Price destroys all she
holds dear. Known as "The Domino Killer" because he leaves
dominoes as a clue to his next victim, Price doesn't stop
until an entire family is destroyed. Even when he's locked
away in prison, the shadow he casts over Karin's life keeps
her in constant darkness.
Then a policeman brings
news to her door: Price has escaped. Karin knows where he's
headed because of the message he left behind last time,
scrawled in blood, on her bathroom mirror—
You are
next.
But Karin Schaeffer refuses to run and hide.
She feels no fear and has nothing left to lose. And so she
waits. She won't stand by and let Price harm any more of her
family. And she won't rest until she's put him back behind
bars forever . . . or until one of them is dead.
