Alone in a maximum-security prison cell in Seattle, Abby Maddox - the former lover of Ethan Wolfe, the killer who left more than a dozen women in his wake - is a celebrity. Abby has little human contact apart for the letters that pour in from her demented fans. But a new wave of murders gives Abby a chance for a plea bargain - because this killer has been sending her love letters, and carving a message on the bodies of the victims: Free Abby Maddox.

Jerry Isaac will never forget his attacker. He wants Abby Maddox to rot in jail - but he knows she could be the key to this disturbing new case. Can he and one of Wolfe's surviving victims, Professor Tao, put the pieces together before Abby's number one fan takes another life in their perverted pursuit of justice?

A killer's revenge is brutal and bittersweet . . .
