Leonard Land is a seven-foot-tall, completely hairless
computer genius, wired to the cyber-punk subculture of
Death Metal and Satan worship. He is also a twisted,
multipersonality maniac who is systematically murdering
women. When he is The Rat, he is smart and cunning; when
he becomes The Wind Minstrel, he is God and the Devil. The
Rat only covets women; The Wind Minstrel possesses them.
Hot on Land's trail is a formidable, if unlikely, trio of
heroes: John Lockwood - a renegade U.S. Customs agent who
never met a rule he didn't break or a regulation he didn't
violate; Karen "Awesome" Dawson - a beautiful and brainy
forensic psychologist who never met a challenge she
couldn't overcome; and Malavida Chacone, a street-wise
master hacker who never met a computer program he couldn't
crack. They pursue their quarry through the convoluted
corridors of cyberspace and deep into the Florida swamps.
But when Land discovers who has been infiltrating his
programs, his nemesis becomes his prey. The hunters are
now the hunted, and they must stop Land before he
claims...the Final Victim.
