Detective Harry Bosch was sure he'd shot the serial killer responsible
for a string of murders in LA . . . but now, a new crime makes him
question his convictions.
They call him the Dollmaker, a serial killer who stalks Los Angeles and
leaves a grisly calling card on the faces of his female victims. When a
suspect is shot by Detective Harry Bosch, everyone believes the city's
nightmare is over. But then the dead man's widow sues Harry and the LAPD
for killing the wrong man--an accusation that rings terrifyingly true
when a new corpse is found with the Dollmaker's macabre signature. Now,
for the second time, Harry must hunt down a ruthless death-dealer before
he strikes again. Careening through a blood-tracked quest, Harry will go
from the hard edges of the L.A. night to the last place he ever wanted
to go--the darkness of his own heart...
