"Nothing on earth can equal the sensation and excitement of violence. The energy it generates is like a fabulous heat from another sun, and the human race is attracted to it like the proverbial moth to the flame." -- David L. Lindsey
Police detective Stuart Haydon returns in another suspense-charged, brilliantly plotted tale of murder and corruption among the super-rich and the desperately poor of today's Houston.
When a motion-picture cameraman is found violently murdered in the darkroom of a Houston agency, Stuart Haydon begins an investigation that ultimately brings him face to face with the darkest side of human nature. Bit by bit, clue by clue, Haydon comes closer to what his mounting suspicions can only begin to suggest as the case progresses -- from a luxurious mansion in the center of a posh suburban estate, to an abandoned warehouse in the seamiest part of the city, where in the novel's astonishing climax he confronts the gruesome evidence of the most bizarre and despicable crimes.
At the heart of all this is a legendary business magnate -- a man as reclusive and mercurial in his business dealings as he is in his personal life; a man of enormous wealth, power, and resources, whose every whim, however eccentric, is indulged on command; a man obsessed by a perverse passion he will go to any lengths to satisfy.
But Stuart Haydon has his own obsession, and his singular determination to confront his own potential for evil draws him dangerously close to the brink of emotional breakdown. Lindsey has created in Haydon one of the most complex, intelligent, and totally human heroes to appear on the suspense scene in a very long time.
