The Maze - An FBI Thriller (Paperback)

Obsessed by her sister?s death at the hands of an apparent serial killer, a brilliant young pianist dedicates her life to tracking down the murderer only to become a target herself, in this contemporary novel of suspense now out in paperback. Catherine Coulter?s "contemporary suspense novels are, unfortunately, few and far between" wrote Publishers Weekly in its rave review of her "fast-paced, solidly structured" novel The Cove. Now Coulter dazzles suspense fans with more "action-packed, spine-tingling romantic suspense." Lacey Sherlock?s life is forever changed when her beloved older sister?s body is discovered in an abandoned warehouse, with multiple stab wounds. She is the fourth victim of the String Killer, the handle the media have given the murderer who leads his victims into a maze with a ball of twine. Seven years after Belinda?s death, Lacey, now an FBI special agent, is paired up with computer whiz Dillon Savich in the Bureau?s Criminal Apprehension Unit (CAU), where Dillon has developed a predictive analogue program to aid in the apprehension of serial killers. When the String Killer strikes again (this time in Boston), Lacey immediately spots his handiwork, resulting in his capture. The suspect confesses, but maintains that he did not kill Belinda. Thanks to Dillon?s expertise and her own detective work, Lacey confirms the killer?s innocence in her sister?s case. No sooner does she clear him than an attempt is made on her life, and Lacey suspects it is the same person who murdered Belinda years ago. Together, she and Dillon must discover who killed her sister ? before they both become the next victims. The Maze is rich in tension, brimming with twists and surprises, and delivers a love story of two dynamic individuals who together solve a baffling killing.
