    About this series

    Jack Till, who has retired from the LAPD after a respected career as a
    homicide detective, now works as a private investigator, comfortable
    chasing down routine cases while visiting his 24-year-old daughter,
    Holly, who has Down Syndrome. But when the parents of a recently
    murdered young girl, about Holly's age, ask for his help when the police
    come up empty, Till reluctantly takes the case.It was
    discovered after her death that the victim had been working as a
    high-class prostitute, and the police are content to assume she was
    killed by a client, common in such a dangerous line of work. Yet as Till
    digs deeper, he realizes that the victim is just one of several young
    female escorts killed in different cities in the exact same way-all
    had strawberry blonde hair, and all were shot with a 9mm handgun in the
    sanctity of their apartments.Till must find his way around the
    tawdry and secretive online escort business, and decode ads placed by
    young women who all use false names, sometimes advertise using other
    women's pictures, and move from city to city every few months. Yet when
    Till is finally able to catch up with the killer, he finds that the man
    he's after is far more dangerous and volatile than he ever could have
    imagined. As the body count rises, Till must risk his life to find this
    seductive and ruthless killer whose murderous spree masks a far deadlier
    agenda.

      Six years ago, Jack Till helped Wendy Harper disappear. But now her ex-boyfriend and former business partner, Eric Fuller, is being framed for her presumed murder in an effort to smoke her out, and Till must find her before tango-dancing assassins Paul and Sylvie Turner do. The Turners are merely hired to do a job, though, and prefer to remain anonymous. When they find that a middleman has let the true employer know their identities, finishing the job is no longer enough. Their fee just went up. And now they must double-cross the man who wants Wendy dead before he can double-cross them-if their jealousy and cold-blooded calculations don't result in a fatal lovers' quarrel first. With masterful plotting and unnerving psychological insight, Thomas Perry delivers another mesmerizing thrill ride.
