Summary

Idaho remeg, és a szomszédos államokban sem biztonságos sötétedés után kilépni az utcára. A könyörtelen sorozatgyilkos áldozatokat szed le, és a helyi és állami rendőröknek nincs válaszuk. Lenny Maraccio, az FBI legfőbb különleges ügynöke évek óta ennek a szívtelen hóhérnak a nyomában van. Az államban egyre többen gondolják úgy, hogy az ügy friss szeme jót tenne, úgy gondolja, hogy Maraccionak félre kellene állnia. De nem lép félre. Vérszomjas elkapását személyes küldetésének tekinti.
 
Maraccio egyedül repül ebben az ügyben, partnerei már régen leszálltak. Mert a vezető ügynök egy kicsit durva a szélein. Kicsit szürke. És egy kicsit kiégett.
 
A közvélemény nyomására az FBI összehozza Maraccio-t Jim Donaghue-val, egy másik különleges ügynökkel, aki nemrégiben hasonló ügyet robbantott le a távoli Delaware-ben. Eddig Donaghue is egyedül repült. Mert egy kicsit durva a szélein. Kicsit szürke. És egy kicsit kiégett.
 
 
 
Maraccio és Donaghue fejest ugranak a munkába. Éjféli olajat éget, láthatatlan ellenségüket üldözi az államokon keresztül, miközben folyamatosan áldozatokat gyűjt. A két ügynök nem a szenzáció miatt van benne, és nem a hírnév miatt van benne. Véget akarnak vetni a mészárlásnak és a gyilkosságokat követő terrornak. Egy váratlan fordulat a kezükre játszhat, hogy elkapják hírhedt ellenfelüket. Vajon sikerrel járnak? Vagy Vérszomjas még egyszer kicsúszik az ujjaik közül?

Archie reveals the lengths he has gone to gain Professor Braddock’s consent to marry Lucy, including the purchase of a valuable Peruvian mummy from Malta.
