Slaughter

New York is a city under attack. Elevators are falling, buildings are exploding and subway trains are coming off the rails. But his is not the work of a band of terrorists, this is the work of one very depraved individual whose most revolting crime is to dismember and then reassemble the body parts of a jogger in Central Park. Detective Frank Quinn knows this is going to be the hardest, if not bloodiest case of his career. Can he find a killer who loves showing how superior he is to the cops before someone else dies? Creepy and compelling, the kind of book you read with the lights on

Rose was hurrying through Central Park. It was nearing dark and she was late for a date. She then hears a cry...

So begins the riveting new Frank Quinn novel Slaughter, by John Lutz. The Gremlin has killed a lot of people in a lot of different ways. He is a baffling killer. Not many authors can infuse a serial killer novel with as many fresh takes as John Lutz. Slaughter is one of the very best Frank Quinn novels and is immensely exciting. The Gremlin is a fascinating killer and Lutz makes sure we know what makes him tick. We can feel the anger and frustration of Frank Quinn and his team at Q & A.

This is a wonderful novel and the reason that John Lutz remains at the top of the heap as far as thriller writers go. I can’t wait for the next Quinn adventure. Write quickly Mr. Lutz, we are waiting!
