The sixth Jack Daniels mystery opens at a funeral. While Jack stands graveside, tears in her eyes, her cell phone rings. It's the killer, escaped maniac Alex Kork, taunting Jack, drawing her ever further into a twisted game of cat and mouse. Because, while Alex is more than willing to kill random victims, Jack is her true prey. But which woman wants revenge more?--From publisher description.

"Things sour quickly when a group of vigilantes on a murderous spree decide to take down a cop and the people she cares about-- and they turn downright awful when Jack discovers that Kork may not be dead after all. Trapped in her house with a psycho and everyone she cares about, and unable to leave because she's surrounded by snipers, the next eight hours will be the worst of Jack's life. And that's saying something"--Back cover.

Taken human life for the sheer pleasure of it. Each is the best at what they do. Luther wants a challenge, and sets his depraved sights on Jack. But with a baby on the way, Jack is at her most vulnerable.
