5.0 out of 5 stars Unholy Alliance, December 15, 2004

By	Anne K. Edwards "AKE" (Pennsylvania) - See all my reviews

Imagine yourself living alone in a rather weird apartment building with equally weird characters as neighbors while a madman roams the city, killing people and removing parts of their bodies. His victims seem to be selected at random and the parts he takes seem to have no relationship with each other. August Summers joins forces with police detective Bobby Beckett, the officer in charge of the investigation of the strange killings, after they find they have more than one thing in common. August might become the killer's next victim and Bobby is working to prevent just that. More than just a mystery, this tale carries with it a mood that matches that of the original Psycho movie, unexpected and unpleasant surprises for the characters, but just that perfect touch of horror to keep the reader turning those pages. Set in New York City, the story is played out mostly in the darker hours while the city sleeps uneasily, not knowing and worrying where the killer will strike next. This is a book you won't want to put down. Enjoy.
