Description: It's a hideous echo of a violent past. Across
America, murders are being committed with all the twisted hallmarks of the
Boston Strangler, the Zodiac Killer and Son of Sam. The media frenzy explodes
and Nashville homicide lieutenant Taylor Jackson knows instantly that The
Pretender is back…and he's got helpers.
As The Pretender's disciples perpetrate their sick homages—stretching police
and the FBI dangerously thin—Taylor tries desperately to prepare for their
inevitable showdown. And she must do it alone. To be close to her is to be in
mortal danger, and she won't risk losing anyone she loves. But the isolation,
the self-doubt and the rising body count are taking their toll—she's beside
herself and ready to snap.
The brilliant psychopath who both adores and despises her is drawing close.
Close enough to touch….
Review: So Close the Hand of Death is another
superb crime thriller by best-selling author J.T. Ellison. Fans of her earlier
novels will not be disappointed with the trouble that heroine Taylor Jackson
finds herself in once again. The book is full of surprising plot twists and
solid writing. The psychological cat and mouse game that goes on in the novel
sets you at the edge of your seat and has you trying to guess what is going to
happen until the very end. Ellison's characters are very rounded and built upon
a strong background from her previous novels - which helps the reader to
understand and sympathize with them all the better. So Close the Hand of
Death is a wonderfully written, taut crime thriller that will make readers
eager for the next adventures of Lt. Taylor Jackson.
