At the beginning of Bruen's seventh Jack Taylor novel, his soul-sick hero is ready to leave Galway and try to start over again in America. When a letter containing a list of victims arrives in the post, P.I. Jack Taylor tells himself that it has nothing to do with him. He has enough to do just staying sane. His close friend Ridge is recovering from surgery, and alcohol’s siren song is calling to him ever more insistently. First a guard, then a judge die in mysterious circumstances. But it is not until a child is added to the list that Taylor determines to find the identity of the killer and stop him at any cost. What he doesn’t know is that his relationship with the killer is far closer than he thinks. And that it’s about to become deeply personal.
