About this ebook
A journalist is caught up in a deadly game of cat-and-mouse with a random killer when his father and girlfriend are killed. After investigating he uncovers a further ten people with nothing in common – except they all appear on The Sweetman Curve, a graph invented by a corrupt university professor which can predict medical life expectancy within a three year bracket.
Unfortunately, the graph has fallen into the hands of the wrong people, one of them being a corrupt senator who has powerful financial backing.

5 ratings1 review
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5This is totally different to the books I usually read by this author. I am so used to his horror books. This was a brilliantly chilling novel and the pages kept turning - a good read.Back Cover Blurb:One by one, a sniper is killing innocent people driving on the freeway. People who have no apparent connection. Or do they? That's what John Cullen means to find out when his father and girlfriend are horribly murdered. And his investigations lead him to some very interesting people and even more bizarre conclusions. All the victims' names appeared on Professor Sweetman's curve. But what does it represent? And how does Senator Carl X. Chapman, a man who will stop at nothing to be the next US President, fit into the increasingly deadly jigsaw puzzle that turns strangers into deadly enemies on the Sweetman Curve....
