Still reading dust covers to decide where something is going? I’ll give it to you generic, just like everyone else. Bleach tastes like bleach and watering down anything never improved it. Unless we’re talking grass or hosing down girls in white t-shirts drinking cold, cold beer.
Still not convinced? Read on. You’re not my ideal reader, but I’ll take a swing at you. And you will be impressed.
Victim number seventeen has been found, naked, strangled and posed at the Washington Monument. For three years a serial killer has preyed on the young college girls in Washington D.C. Now with reporters hounding him during an election year, even the President is involved.
Dan Fuller, a young homicide detective, is new to the department and the case. Anxious to get to work and prove his brilliance, he’s sidelined by Captain Meyers until he can find a retired detective named Costigan and convince him to help.
Costigan, however, was forced to retire and holds a grudge that he now fills with his penchant for hookers and booze. Fuller eventually convinces him, but he immediately has demands if he’s going to help out. Demands of Fuller that he insists will solve this case.
Eager to get his shot at the case, Fuller caves to his demands only to face new ones that keep popping up out of the blue. With each one getting more and more twisted, Fuller is forced to stand his ground, but it is too late. He’s already in over his head and facing the likelihood of a long prison sentence with every cop in the city searching to arrest both of them.
With a serial killer no closer to being caught and Costigan proving to be more crazy than genius, Fuller is screwed. They have no evidence, no suspects and no leads, except for the insane ones Costigan creates out of thin air and insists on following up. Each of which only adds to their problems, turning their bad situation into one that is impossible to get out of.
One way or another it is all going to end in less than twenty-four hours. Will Fuller catch the serial killer and prove his brilliance against the criminal mind? Or will Costigan drive Fuller off a cliff?
