Description:
Carol Starkey is a survivor -- a Los Angeles bomb squad veteran now doing time as a Detective-2 with LAPD's Criminal Conspiracy Section. It has been three years since the detonation that killed her partner and lover David "Sugar" Boudreaux. Sugar saved Carol's life, but couldn't stop two bomb fragments that sliced through her protective Kevlar, leaving her permanently scarred. The emotional fallout from the trauma can only be tempered by a steady diet of Tagamet and alcohol. Now, she can't bear to look in the mirror and has not been with another man since Sugar left her bed the morning they went to work.
Expand description
When a seemingly innocuous bomb call takes the life of another colleague, Carol embarks on an investigation of a series of explosions that reveal intentions far more disturbing than one-shot acts of anarchy. They are designed expressly to kill bomb technicians, and as the one tech who got away, Carol is in for the fight of her life.
Against the dazzling and lonely backdrop of contemporary Los Angeles, Crais has crafted the most unforgettable female lead character in crime fiction and pitted her against a frighteningly brilliant killer for the modern age.
