Puncture

Rate this book
Three strangers are invited to the opening of a Manhattan art gallery and find nothing more than a single white sculpture etched with an image of a scorpion.

No other guests. No artist. No explanation.

That night, a woman is found dead in the river, her neck marked with a scorpion tattoo.

The three strangers—women with quiet lives—become the focus of an aggressive detective who thinks they had something to do with the scorpion tattoo murder. More disturbing, they become the target of the gallery artist . . . who is intent on hunting them down, one-by-one.

The women are drawn into a nightmare of lies, mistrust, and betrayal. They take it upon themselves to find the reclusive gallery artist, who believes that causing pain is the highest form of art. And he won’t stop until he has turned one of them into his most terrifying creation.
