About the Book

Once-noted psychologist, Dr. Beverly McGrath, has dropped off the radar. Likewise, her psychiatric colleague, Dr. Perry Burgess, has watched his own career languish for the same reason. Interest in the subjects of their expertise has faded. They were old news.

Fortunately, a horrifying revival of their previous pursuits has given the pair a second chance. The escape of their former patients, two notorious celebrities of the federal penal system, has reopened doors that have been closed to them for over a decade. A deadly repeat of past crimes presents opportunity amid the tragedy.

For Floyd Madison, the equally diminished bounty-hunter who had put an end to a similar rash of killings fifteen years earlier, the chance to resurface is enticing. Like the pair of formerly famous therapists, he too is in dire need of a return to the spotlight and will go to great lengths to achieve it.

The authorities and public alike can only watch helplessly as Spencer James Stoning, the narcissistic spree killer and Stanley Lewis Hewitt, the mentally deficient serial killer, take their own violent trip down memory lane together.

With a few simple murders, they would all be newsworthy again.
