      About This Book

      Roger Karp, a handsome D.A. with an insatiable lust for justice, won't rest until he gets no lesser plea than "guilty of murder" out of a vicious assassin. Mandeville Louis killed two people in cold blood, then cleverly threw a phony crazy fit in court and walked away from his trial. Now. Lying in wait in a psychiatric ward until the heat is off, Louis may slip through the system again. But Karp refuses to let go of this sociopath who laughs at the law while he kills and kills again. For even in the relative security of a mental hospital, Louis's homicide spree is not over as Karp's beautiful colleague, Marlene Ciampi, becomes an unwitting pawn in the two men's deadly battle of minds...and murder.
