Two Boston detectives team up with the underworld’s worst criminals to stop a vicious serial killer in this thriller by the author of Sniper. After tracking down a crazed sniper last year, Boston homicide detectives Mike Houston and Anne Bouchard retreated to rural Maine. They adjusted nicely to mountain life, chopping their own firewood, and relaxing in their log cabin. But when Bouchard meets the Guerettes, an elderly couple trying to locate their missing granddaughter, she and Houston returns to the game as private detectives. A drug addicted prostitute, Cheryl Guerette was last seen climbing into the car of an unknown John. Bouchard suspects the man was a serial killer known to the BPD as The Fisherman. The suspect has been snatching homeless women and prostitutes off the streets from Portland to Boston, and Bouchard needs Houston if she’s going to catch him. Houston and Bouchard also turn to mob boss Jimmy O’Leary for advice. Not only does O’Leary have a hand in most of the crime that occurs in Boston, but he also knows a few Russian bosses and pimps who are angry about the killer’s effect on business. With help from the darker side of Boston, Bouchard and Houston hope to catch The Fisherman before it’s too late.
