Opis

Fallsburg, New York has a killer on the loose-one who's leaving their sadistic, telltale marks on innocent victims. A pretty teenage girl is found dead in the woods, her face horribly mutilated. A few days later, a second girl, also strikingly beautiful, is attacked in a similar fashion. Who would do such a brutal thing-and why? Is there some sort of psychopathic monster lurking out there, preying upon vulnerable females? Or are the victims being targeted by someone they know It's up to two of Fallsburg's finest-Detective Jean Whitley and her new partner, Marty Keal, to find out who's responsible. When Jean starts digging up clues, she is startled to learn that the crime has hit uncomfortably close to home. The victims--and many of the potential suspects--are classmates of Jean's fourteen-year-old daughter Bethany. To make matters worse, Bethany's behavior has drastically changed. Jean's sweet, loving child has become a sullen, secretive stranger. How much does Bethany really know about the victims--and the crimes that are taking place? Does Bethany's hunky, new heartthrob have anything to do with the crimes? And why does the mounting evidence keep pointing to a popular parish priest? Suddenly deprived of her longtime police detective mentor and friend, Jean is forced to take the lead in this latest investigation while breaking in a new partner. As they dig deeper into the case, Jean encounters threats to her career, her family relationships...and quite possibly to her own daughter's life. Through it all, Jean and Marty must unravel a multi-layered mystery and put a face on the unseen villain before anyone else ends up dead...and faceless.
