Law enforcement Sergeant Lou Boldt heads a special job drive within Seattle’s Homicide bureau. His work: find and stop the Combination Killer, a twisted, perverse serial murderer that has eluded law enforcement for half a year and paralyzed the town. But when a body washes up on the shoreline of Puget Sound, Boldt feels the killer offers finally made a blunder. This body displays some of the function of the Cross Killer-but a job badly botched. Did this woman perish while trying to flee? Did she knowingly jump in the water to protect a clue? And it is she today desperately wanting to inform Boldt something? With the help of the appealing Daphne Matthews, a law enforcement psychologist, Boldt items together the complex puzzle-and the reader is used along on the journey into the mind of the killer, and into the day-by-day nuts and bolts of law enforcement function, that is among the best in modern criminal offense fiction. For visitors of Caunitz, Wambaugh, and Sanders, Undercurrents is a roller-coaster ride in the dark which will intrigue, startle, and satisfy.
