George Sonnewell’s rage has been building inside him since maturing in an abusive household. Now, he is a billionaire living in San Francisco, where the homeless situation irks him to no end. He decides to act and murders a homeless person. Shortly afterward, he makes a phone call and lets the recipient know their plan has been set in motion. Sonnewell is a member of a group called “The Five,” a cabal of kindred spirits seeking to satiate their bloodlust and take out society’s problems. The third of the planned five murders occur in Minnesota, which necessitates the involvement of US Marshal Lucas Davenport and Detective Virgil Flowers. The murders have the feds’ hackles raised, and they’re scrambling to prevent any further deaths.

An unputdownable thriller.
