Summary:
"LAPD detective Milo Sturgis and psychologist Alex Delaware must solve a series of murders involving the use of expensive black automobiles at the scene of the crimes. And what does a child missing for sixteen years have to do with their search for the perpetrator?"
A tipsy young woman seeking aid on a desolate highway disappears into the inky black night. A retired schoolteacher is stabbed to death in broad daylight. Two women are butchered after closing time in a small-town beauty parlor. These and other bizarre acts of cruelty and psychopathology are linked only by the killer’s use of luxury vehicles and a baffling lack of motive. The ultimate whodunits, these crimes demand the attention of LAPD detective Milo Sturgis and his collaborator on the crime beat, psychologist Alex Delaware.
