Another grim and gripping outing from a coruscating new crime talent. Two years ago a brutal serial killer (yes, another one) known as Cupid terrorised Miami, torturing and killing 11 young women. Sociopath William Bantling was arrested by the police, and Assistant State Attorney C J Townsend put him on Florida's death row, where he waits to pay for the crimes with his life. But now a new terror stalks Miami Beach. Three cops are dead - savagely mutilated while out on patrol. The killer's apparently motiveless attacks horrify the public and leave law enforcement officials shaken. And then it becomes clear that all three dead cops worked on the Cupid investigation… Jilliane Hoffman was an Assistant State Attorney and has acted as the regional adviser for the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, advising special agents on complex investigations including narcotics, homicide and organised crime. All of this experience is parleyed into a well-honed, non-nonsense narrative that mostly sees off the customary serial killer cliche's.
