The search for a serial killer in 1991 New York. An exceptional police novel that holds your interest. ( )

For a police drama, I felt this was one of the best reads. The characters are real, the scenes far more believable, the plot ugly enough and the story arc right on the money.
This is the first Cauntz novel I've read, but definitely not the last.
The scattering of sex scenes are somewhat graphic, but not so detailed as to put me off.
I felt the ending was a tad too abrupt and left way too many questions - more appropriate to a continuing series. But then, I'm awfully picky when it comes to endings. ( )
