In this AWARD WINNING thriller, the tranquility of a small New England town is shattered when a ruthless serial killer strikes. The HUNTSMAN’s calling the victims’ hearts, cleaved from their young bodies, and a poisoned apple. The abductions seem to pause when the prime suspect, Lincoln Raider, falls and lands in a coma at a local hospital. ICU nurse Max Mason reads nightly to the helpless patient. It is not a kindness, for Max is sharing his own murderous thoughts. When Lincoln awakens Max is drawn into a whirlpool of terror, deception, and violence, ultimately pulling Lincoln's wife and daughter into the vortex. And the clock is ticking down on the life of another woman, held captive by THE HUNTSMAN.
Got this at a yard sale, not all that far from where the book takes place, for $1. Glad I didn't pay more for it, but maybe wish I had spent the time reading a better book. This one was kind of all over the place, and the surprise ending stopped being a surprise about half way through.
