Product Description:
Frank Quinn is sure he is hunting for a madman: someone is shooting young women in the heart, defiling their bodies, leaving only torsos to be found. Quinn, a former NYPD detective, is called into the case by an ambitious chief of police and mobilises his team of brilliant law-enforcement misfits. But in the concrete canyons of New York, this shocking serial murder case is turning into something very different.Jill Clark came to the city with too many hopes and too little cash. Now a seemingly deranged woman is telling her an extraordinary story. New to an exclusive dating service, Jill is warned that other women have died on their dates - and that she could be next. Struggling against a death trap closing in around her, Jill has a powerful ally in Frank Quinn. But no one knows the true motive behind a rampage of cold-blooded murder - and how much more terrifying this is going to get.

Average Rating: 
Rating: - NIGHT KILLS will provide you with enough mystery, mayhem, twists, turns and surprises to fill three or four novels
John Lutz is one of those journeyman authors who is good for at least one book a year. He is always solid and dependable, and has been so since the mid-1970s. Movie fans also should be familiar with him, as his novel SINGLE WHITE FEMALE was adapted for the big screen. If you are not reading Lutz, you should be; if you do, then I predict that NIGHT KILLS, his latest work, will prompt you to move his name to the magic circle of your "must-read" list. It is, my friends, a breakthrough novel.

Quinn quickly assembles ... Read More
Rating: - What A Page Turner
I have long been a fan of John Lutz' books, filled with gripping story lines and superbly crafted characters. His newest, Night Kills has one of the most original and compelling plots I've read in a long time. He surprises the reader fairly early on by letting us know why young women are being murdered in New York. And that's when the devilishly creative plot really gets rolling with new twists and turns seemingly with every page turned. Try not to begin reading this book at night because you will be up ...
