Psychopathy

Valerie Hart, the intrepid San Francisco homicide detective, is planning a weekend away from work when she gets a call. A body has been found; A woman who was beaten and killed. And next to it was a cryptic note that began 'To Valerie…' and read: 'You know who I am. 'Welcome to your nightmare.'

Convinced that she has no connection to the victim, Valerie investigates the scene and realizes that clues point in a very disturbing direction: a maximum security prison and a woman named Katherine awaiting execution for the gruesome murders she committed. The person who sends him behind bars is none other than Valerie, whose last thing she wants is to re-enter the dark mind of a murderer.

However, when a second body is found with an encrypted message, he realizes that he has no choice but to solve this puzzle. Katherine Glass is the only person who knows the secret of the murders, and she must figure out what Valerie wants before the circle gets even narrower. Even if he knows that the psychopath killer holds all the cards, he will not be able to avoid playing this deadly game once again.

“Saul Black is a brand new breath in the psychological thriller genre.”
