Chasing white collar criminals is a far cry \u003cbr\u003e from hunting serial killers and Cady basks in the glow of his newer, more laidback lifestyle, that is, until a young woman's body possessing a most-disturbing \u003cbr\u003e characteristic is pulled from Lake Superior outside of Duluth. And if being ordered \u003cbr\u003e to investigate this case isn't bad enough, Cady's former boss--Assistant Director \u003cbr\u003e of CID Roland Jund--has killed a fellow agent and stands accused of being a spy.\u003cbr\u003e Now Agent Cady must draw upon every last bit of experience he has to clear his \u003cbr\u003e friend's name while at the same time ensuring that no more innocent lives are \u003cbr\u003e extinguished by a sadistic killer with a taste for blood. But nobody is who they \u003cbr\u003e appear to be and information is only as reliable as its source.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe stories of \u003cb\u003eJeffrey B.
