Description
Serial killers often prey on the innocent, but the killer in this mystery attacks the most innocent of victims--the unborn babies of teenage mothers. Using a sophisticated weapon to penetrate the swollen abdomens of the mothers and kill only the infant inside, the elusive killer systematicaly stalks the patients of the Special Procedures Clinic.
The general public is horrified at the murders, but some of those who might be most able to help stop the killer appear to be dragging their fee. Aided by a local newspaper resporter, Dr. John Erickson, an OB/GYN at the clinic, gets involved, launching an investigation of his own.
