About this series
NYPD’s top cop, Homicide Commander Lt. John Driscoll, believes there’s a sociopathic killer on the loose murdering prostitutes in New York City—someone who calls himself “Tilden” and claims to have been sexually abused as a child by his mother’s john.
But he soon discovers Tilden’s not a run-of-the-mill sociopath. After all, would a common murderer have taken the time to embalm his victims, which the city’s chief medical examiner determined was the cause of their deaths?
Driscoll, a man haunted by the events of an unstable childhood himself, must put aside any sympathy he may have for Tilden and put a stop to his murderous rampage. Teamed up with Sgt. Margaret Aligante and Det. Cedric Thomlinson, who have their own issues to deal with, the commander sets out to bring Tilden to justice before he kills again . . .
“O'Callaghan is back with a vengeance . . . a complex but nuanced thriller that grabs you by the throat and never lets go.” —Gregg Olsen, #1 New York Times–bestselling author of If You Tell and Water’s Edge

- Bone Thief
In this suspense thriller by the author of The Screaming Room, New York City is terrorized by a serial killer leaving boneless corpses in his wake. A sociopathic killer is using the internet to lure seemingly random women to their gruesome deaths in New York City. During his heinous murderous spree, this madman is extracting the bones of his victims. His sheer brutality has the Big Apple’s residents in panic mode. Who is this twisted psycho who’s abducted a housewife in broad daylight only to dispose of her lifeless body alongside a lake in Prospect Park, nailed the boneless remains of a nameless drifter to the underside of a boardwalk at Rockaway Beach, allowed the gutted corpse of a single parent to wash ashore under the Brooklyn Bridge, and has had the audacity to leave the desecrated body of the Magnolia Tea heiress rotting atop trash at one of the city’s sanitation dumps? NYPD’s top cop, Homicide Commander Lieutenant John W. Driscoll has never witnessed such savagery. Hammered daily by the district attorney, the mayor and the police commissioner, the lieutenant, who’s battling his own inner demons, must use every resource available to put an end to the killings. In a race against time, Driscoll, aided by Sergeant Margaret Aligante and Detective Cedric Thomlinson, sets out on a rollercoaster of an investigation to first identify the villainous fiend, and then take him down. Praise for Bone Thief “Sweeps the reader along its breathless, tumbling course.” —Peter Straub, #1 New York Times–bestselling author of A Dark Matter “Sharp as a scalpel, chilling as ice.” —Gayle Lynds, New York Times–bestselling author of The Assassins
- The Screaming Room
A multimillion-dollar bounty brings out every vigilante in New York . . . “Chilling psychological suspense that will leave you at the edge of your seat.” —Alex Kava, New York Times–bestselling author of the Maggie O’Dell series Tourism in New York City is under siege. Visitors to the Big Apple have become targets of a pair of vengeful twins bent on exacting punishment on total strangers to right the wrongs perpetrated against them in a hellhole they called home. Their audacious killing spree leaves men and women of all ages and ethnicities brutally murdered then scalped, their lifeless forms displayed in macabre fashion at landmarks throughout the metropolis. NYPD Homicide Commander John W. Driscoll, along with his dedicated team of Sgt. Margaret Aligante and Det. Cedric Thomlinson, is determined to bring the pair to justice—as is a despicable grieving father whose idea of justice is at odds with morality itself. By offering a three million dollar bounty, not a cent of which he plans to part with, he’s turned the city into a get-rich-quick circus, with an overzealous mayor acting as ringmaster to please Mr. Moneypockets any way he can. And Driscoll—who’s been assigned the case just hours after he buried his wife—must put his grief on hold and focus on shutting down the twins’ reign of terror by apprehending them before their denouement is dictated by an unscrupulous and unforgiving interloper . . .
