DYING FOR LOVE
Serial murder or murder for hire? Rich, famous, and powerful married men and their mistresses/lovers are being murdered, caught in the act, dispatched with blasts from a .44 Magnum. They're "Dying For Love" in the throes of -"Night Heat."
"What you won't do - do for love." The hit song is right. So, is love a mental disorder? What else explains the insatiable desire and motivation that makes one risk life, fame, power, wealth, social standing to bask in the glow and afterglow of "joygasm"-sexual gratification at any cost?
They're dying. Wealthy, powerful, influential married men, and their lovers (male and female) are being blown to hell by powerful blasts from a killer or killers wielding a .44 Magnum with hollow points. The vaunted LAPD is catching heat, and are once again forced to turn to a man they would rather eat nails than call.
A baffled LAPD struggles with unsolved murders of super-rich, super famous married men, including a tech billionaire, a renowned mega-evangelist, and a major-league baseball star. Each, and their lovers, are found murdered, victims of blasts from a .44 magnum.
Solution:
Call John Rom o, a cocky former LAPD homicide whiz with an international reputation. He's a "retired" 42 year-old multi-millionaire author, screenwriter, and criminology professor with an "eye for beauty and a nose for murder. Even international agencies call upon his expertise: Interpol, Mosaad, Scotland Yard, even the CIA.
When the case is unsolvable, the LAPD eats the "nails" and call him anyway. But this time, the hunter becomes the hunted. Rom o may not survive this time but he won't go down easy, and he won't go down alone.
