This morning I woke up and looked in the candy bowl that was for last nights the trick or treaters. It was empty. I am staring at a table with dirty platters and fading glow sticks. My floor is sticky. I’m not exactly sure what that is on the chair, but I think it’s the face of a goblin. What a mess. What a wonderful, fantastic mess. It will take me a few days to clean up after last nights Halloween party and I couldn’t be happier. I had a house full of friends and family who came to celebrate. Earlier this week people were uncertain if Halloween would be canceled due to the evacuation and fires, but the evacuations were lifted. Last night Sonoma County celebrated. The fires are not completely contained, but most of the threat is down. On a cool Halloween night the streets were filled with trick or treaters and very happy parents. Neighborhoods were glowing with festive lights, pumpkins and glow sticks. Treat bags were filled and a few travel mugs had something other than coffee in them. It was a good night.

A MOB BOSS IS EATEN ALIVE BY TIGERS AT THE BRONX ZOO. A New Jersey factory owner is mutilated and left to bleed out under a Manhattan highway. A French pharmaceutical baron is tortured and frozen to death in Little Italy. A high-society fashion designer is poisoned in her Upper East Side apartment. Four months, four unsolved murders – each carried out on the last Saturday night of the month.
The victims share no similar traits, have no connections to each other, have no common enemies, and were each killed in very different ways. NYPD Detectives Mike Stoneman and Jason Dickson pick up the trail based on the coincidental timing of the unsolved murders. Could these assassinations really be the work of a single serial killer? Why would a single killer choose such strange and disparate methods? Why spread your victims across all of New York? And most importantly, how do you track down someone with no discernable pattern?
Each new murder adds a piece to the killer’s jigsaw puzzle, but even unravelling the clues and finding the killer’s pattern may not be enough to catch him. Mike and Jason bring in help from FBI profiler Angela Manning, and together they start to close in. But will they be able to stop the elusive killer before he completes his decathlon of death? Each month is a race against the calendar. On the last Saturday of the month, there will be blood.
Follow Detective Mike Stoneman as he tries to outwit a most complex killer. Then, as a special free bonus, read the award-winning short story, Fool Me Twice, the very first episode in the Mike Stoneman saga.
