A serial killer is taking out cops in NYC. Could Detective Michael Bennett be next? Michael
Bennett says a prayer every time he witnesses a death. In his line of work it happens too
often. But lately he's attended so many police funerals that his deepening sadness is crossing
into the zone of suspicion. Bennett must find the person responsible for the deaths of his
friends - before he becomes their next target. With a new baby on the way Bennett's
protective instincts - as a father a colleague and a detective - have never faced a bigger
test. _____________________________________ PRAISE FOR JAMES PATTERSON 'It's no mystery
