When elderly Morey Gilbert is found lying dead in the grass by his wife,
Lily, it's a tragedy, but it shouldn't have been a shock - old people
die. But when she finds a bullet hole in his skull, the blood washed
away by heavy rain, sadness turns to fear. It looks like an execution
... And soon a whole city is fearful as new victims are found killed
with the same cold precision. All elderly. All apparently blameless.
Detectives Magozzi and Rolseth race to uncover a connection, and their
best hope of doing so my be Grace McBride, beautiful, damaged survivor
of an earlier killing spree. And the answers, it seems, are buried in a
terrible past.
Filled with the same crackling dialogue, pace and rich, vivid characters
as the author's debut, Want to Play?, P. J. Tracy's Live Bait is an
electrifying thriller that explores the chilling extremes of evil and
retribution.
