Fans of James Patterson and Michael Connelly will love C.M. Sutter The murder of Dwayne Lincoln sends Detective Jesse McCord on a nonstop pursuit of an unknown assailant who claims to be the city’s judge, jury, and executioner. Cryptic notes discovered after each murder lead law enforcement to believe the killer is trying to rid the city of sinners with intolerable vices. Strange behavior from Tammy Lincoln, Dwayne’s wife, puts Jesse on high alert. Her actions speak volumes, and her lack of concern for her husband’s death causes Jesse to question her innocence. But as more murders are committed—each with an execution-style bullet to the forehead—Jesse wonders if Tammy is involved at all. She doesn’t own a gun and isn’t acquainted with any of the other victims. Days into the investigation and with bodies piling up, Jesse is blindsided by an unsuspecting character who turns the investigation on its tail. Jesse sets out on a high-speed chase through Chicago, where he has to stop the carnage before he ends up being the next victim. The Detective Jesse McCord Police Thriller books are listed in chronological order below #1 Sniper's Nest #2 At Large #3 Deadly Pursuit #4 To Die For #5 Booked for Murder #6 End of the Line #7 Deadly Deception #8 Hard to Kill #9 Final Shot #10 Identity Crisis Editorial Review “In Chicago, an abusive husband is the victim of an execution-style shooting, and few tears are shed. But when some apparently unrelated victims also die with a bullet to the head, Homicide Detective Jesse McCord and his team have to find the culprit. With an investigation that takes readers from Gold Coast mansions to the local women’s shelter, C. M. Sutter’s latest tale will keep readers guessing about the killer’s identity until the bitter end.” Angela M., Line Editor, Red Adept Editing

Great book!

Love this series! When an abusive husband is shot in the middle of the night while the wife is in a women's shelter, the police think it's a single death. When others turn up dead with the same wound and letters from the killer appear, Detective Jesse McCord notices patterns appearing. Can he get to the bottom of it in time?
