Summer in the city can really be murder . . .
She seemed perfect. Her hair, her voice, the way she walked. It was as if his vision of the ideal woman had just materialised in front of his eyes. And by some freak one-in-a-million chance they'd met on New York's teeming streets.
He wasn't the sort of man to wonder if she was too good to be true. To wonder if things like this really happened. To wonder whether his dream woman might turn out to be his worst nightmare. Until it was too late.
For Detective Conrad Voort of the NYPD, the frenzied slayings of a series of men are a baffling, unconnected puzzle, turning an oven-hot summer in the city into a cauldron of fear and horror. But Voort may not have to wait too long to find the killer. The killer may be about to find him.
