About this ebook

An ex-cop turned PI goes up against a lady killer known as “The Butcher” in this crime thriller New York Times–bestselling author of Darker Than Night.

An Invitation Written In Blood . . .

A madman is stalking women in the city. By the time his victims are found, they’ve been dismembered with careful precision, their limbs stacked into a gruesome pyramid and completely cleansed of every last drop of blood.

To Catch A Killer—Or Die Next . . .

Accustomed to working on the most grisly homicides, detective Frank Quinn’s nerves don’t rattle easily. But when the last names of the killer’s victims spell out “Q-u-i-n-n,” the veteran cop feels a chill run down his spine. Then, a fresh victim is linked to the one woman Quinn can’t stop desiring. Hunting down killers is what Quinn does best. But this time, Quinn is up against a psychopath that will test him as never before . . .

Praise for In for the Kill

“Shamus and Edgar award–winner Lutz gives us further proof of his enormous talent. . . . Lutz has a thorough command of plot and character, making this another enthralling page turner.” —Publishers Weekly

“Moviegoers sometimes hide their eyes during the really scary parts. Readers would do that while turning these pages, too, if not for the obvious drawback. A very scary and suspenseful read.” —Booklist

The sins of the mother definitely permeate this story of a serial killer. Lutz kept me reading and insanely hoping there would be no more murders.

This is a book about a very different kind of serial killer. His method of killing is horrific, and was learned from mommy dearest. The detectives involved at pursuing him were unique. Anyone liking this type of book will enjoy reading it.
