Book excerpt: Kartoon. A city of undercurrents. A city plunged into darkness. A city on the edge of insanity. A serial killer is on the loose. A city of shadows. To examine a murder scene is to look only at a shadow of what happened, and the shadow of the killer. The target are police. The killer is successful. Confusing clues. A dancer in adult’s only nightclub a person of interest. The dancers wear masks. The killer’s face unknown. The only witness to a kill in a dark alley recalls ‘a very sexy ass’. The killer is unpredictably inventive and appears to be in two places at the same time. Buildings large teams of police enter in the hunt for the killer tend to explode. Carnage. Yet it seems an unfortunate accident. The police death toll starts looking like a war casualty list. Mayhem. Identifying the ‘very sexy ass’ among shapely young dancers in adult's only clubs not easy. Even in the face of an elaborate trap the killer proves elusive. Suspense from beginning to end as pieces of the puzzle became less easy to fit together. An explosive climax.
