Description
In this tautly plotted story of a modern lack the Ripper's spree in Houston, Lansdale creates a powerful combination of crime, police work, and social commentary--all with an eye for graphic detail. With each new victim the serial killer picks out, the nerve-breaking manhunt for "The Houston Hacker" moves toward a shocking and grisly finale. Lansdale's graphic style is the dark heart of this book, its violence grim and informed and experimental.
