[Jack King 01] • Spider

Synopsis The press call him the Black River Killer and his stats are shocking: 16 murders; not captured in 20 years; the FBI’s best profiler – Jack King – burned out and beaten, his career shattered. Jack and his wife now run a hotel in Tuscany. And though he still gets nightmares, rural Italy is a whole world away from BRK's brutal crime scenes in Southern Carolina. Or so Jack thought . . . As Italian cops discover the body of a young woman – her remains mutilated like BRK's victims - a gruesome package arrives at the FBI, twin events that conspire to lure the profiler back into the hunt. But this time, who is the spider and who is the fly? » Read the prologue and first five chapters by downloading the Penguin Taster here » Visit Penguin Tasters
