Pete Adler is a man with problems. He’s a shy social outcast with no real friends. His luck with women has been spotty at best. A hostile work environment has made his life a living hell for months on end. For Pete, the weekend comes as a welcome respite from these things, but early Saturday morning he finds a beautiful and scantily clad dead woman on his couch. He has no idea who she is or how she got there. Is this a frame-up? Did he kill her in a blackout? Answers to these questions are elusive at first, but then the last woman he ever dated shows up on his doorstep out of the blue and things get seriously complicated from there. Blood is spilled. More bodies pile up. Pete is pushed to his limits as he is forced to do many strange and horrible things. A deadly game is being played and Pete is the ultimate pawn, with his fate coming down to a race against time.
Normally when I get a release from Bryan Smith and it’s under 200 pages I get disgruntled. Having to wait a long time for a release from one of my favorite authors and getting a novella makes me feel short-changed. This books however, is so chock-full of situation,suspense,and depravity I didn’t even notice the diminished length . Pound for pound this is one of Smith’s best. The slow buildup of tension and the development of the main character from a milquetoast to a stone cold killer is brilliant writing. If you haven’t read Smith yet,you need to. If you have read Smith it’s right up there with his best.
