ADVENTURE / THRILLER. Detective Reuben ?Diego? Montoya is back in New Orleans. Thanks to years of working with the dark side of society, his youthful swagger is gone, replaced by straightforward determination. He?ll need it, because a serial killer is turning The Big Easy into his personal playground. The victims are killed in pairs ? no connection, no apparent motive, no real clues. Somebody's playing a sick game, and Montoya intends to beat him at it. His only lead is the ex-wife of one of the victims. Abby Chastain is a woman haunted by painful secrets. Twenty years ago she watched in horror as her mother, a patient at the Our Lady of Virtues Mental Hospital, plunged through a window to her death. Abby has always dreaded that she too would one day go insane?especially now, back in this town, where she's begun to feel watched, as if the devil himself is scraping a fingernail along her spine. Something about Abby ? her spirit and her honest fear ? gets to Montoya
