The fourth novel in the thrilling Shamus Award winning, Agatha & Anthony Award nominated series. The tenants of a Manhattan apartment in a heated dispute with their landlord believe he’s using a bird-of-prey to hunt down their cats and drive them out of the building. Virginia PI Frank Pavlicek, an ex-NYPD cop and an avid falconer himself, investigates the bizarre case as a favor for his friend, another ex-cop-turned-PI. But he soon discovers that there’s more at stake than cats and condos, pitting him against a sadistic street gang and a killer prowling Central Park with a great horned owl. Previously published under the title “Kitty Hitter.”
