"A novel"--T.p. paperback.

Devastated and suspected by the police after the brutal murder of his girlfriend, hospital psychologist Jeremy Carrier finds himself unwittingly engaged in a game of cat and mouse when additional murders take place and clues begin appearing in his mail.

When his brief, passionate romance with nurse Jocelyn Banks is cut short by her kidnapping and brutal murder, Dr. Jeremy Carrieris left emotionally devastated, haunted by his lover's grisly demise and warily eyed by police still seeking a prime suspect in the unsolved slaying. To escape the pain, he buries himself in his work as staff psychologist at City Central Hospital--only to be drawn deeper into a waking nightmare when more women turn up murdered in the same gruesome fashion as Jocelyn.
