SO THIS GIRL WALKS INTO A BAR……and when she walks out there’s a man with her. She goes to bed with him, and she likes that part. Then she kills him, and she likes that even better. On her way out, she cleans out his wallet. She keeps moving, and has a new name for each change of address. She’s been doing this for a while, and she’s good at it. And then a chance remark gets her thinking of the men who got away, the lucky ones who survived a night with her. She starts writing down names. And now she’s a girl with a mission. Picking up their trails. Hunting them down. Crossing them off her list…

“One of the best books of this or any year.” - BookReporter“…you’ll be rooting for this thoroughly beguiling serial killer on a mission. A pro’s pro, Block never wastes a word, never misplaces a plot element… it also boasts Block’s legendary craftsmanship, sly humor, and virtuoso plotting. The premise is to die for!” - Booklist“[A] fun, fast-paced read full of steamy moments and a twist ending… a must have for pulp fiction fans.” - Celebrity Cafe“A great read from cover to cover… believe me when I say that you are in for a wonderful time.” - Horror News“A perfect treat.” - Affairs Magazine“Block has, once again, created a tale to excite and absorb even the most jaded reader of crime fiction.” – Eclipse Magazine“… compulsively readable… with a character that has a lot more to offer the reader than the genre typically maintains.” - The Daily RotationPraise for Lawrence Block:“There is only one writer of mystery and detective fiction who comes close to replacing the irreplaceable John D. MacDonald…The writer is Lawrence Block.” - Stephen King “Unfailingly entertaining.” - The New York Times “One of the very best writers now working the beat.” - The Wall Street Journal “Lawrence Block is a master of crime fiction.” - Jonathan Kellerman
