The Anniversary Man

Twenty years ago John Costello's life, as he knew it, ended. He and his beautiful girlfriend, Nadia, were victims of the deranged 'Hammer of God' killer who terrorised New Jersey City throughout the summer of 1984. Nadia was killed instantly. John survived, but withdrew from society, emerging only to work as a crime researcher for a major newspaper. Damaged he may be, but no one in New Jersey knows more about serial killers than John Costello. Then a new spate of murders starts - all seemingly random and unrelated - until John discovers a complex pattern that links them. But could this dark knowledge be about to threaten his life?


If you like thrillers/cop/mystery books that are driven by character and story rather than by gore and horrendous details you might want to check this one out. From the looks of his other books each is a stand alone so reading order doesn't matter. I'm will be checking all his previous titles.

Our library system does not have it...perhaps it's really new? They have a few of his other works.
