A serial killer with a poet's pen and a taste for revenge leaves matchbooks as his calling card--one verse at a time. Dr. Robert Gold, a psychologist plagued by panic attacks, thought he'd left the darkest corners of the human psyche behind in his office. But when psychologists begin turning up dead--each crime scene marked by a white matchbook inscribed in elegant, chilling calligraphy--he's pulled into a deadly game of riddles and revenge. The Matchbook Maniac embarks on a statewide killing spree, quickly becoming the most dangerous serial killer the country has ever seen. The countdown has begun. The inscription on Dr. Gold's first matchbook reads, As time ticks by either slowly or fast You may be sure that you will die last With a foulmouthed police chief, a dog with a nose for trouble, and a sassy cop who awakens feelings he thought long dead, Robert must outthink a killer who's always one verse ahead--and closing in. Some scars won't heal. Some fires won't die. Some poems are murder.
