Thirteen bodies are found in a Louisville restaurant. When the police can find no suspect or motive, a victimโs family seeks the services of the enigmatic and solitary specialist Roy Prescott, known for his ability to find people who donโt want to be found. Working outside the law and willing to do what the police canโt, Prescott hunts the killer, an elusive adversary who is as smart, as methodical, as deadly as he is. The only way to conduct this pursuit is to goad the killer into believing that he must kill Roy Prescott. It is a contest fought from one end of the country to the other, and both men understand that when itโs over, only one of them will be alive.
