He's hired by a rich client in LaJolla to track down his runaway daughter. At the same time, Southern California is being terrorized by an elusive serial killer, who remains one step (and one victim) ahead of the police--and the FBI--who never know where he will strike, or when. His crime spree begins in the desert, outside Victorville, and ends...in L.A.

Like two trains running, the inevitable occurs, in a thrilling climax...one filled with insight, action and mayhem.
