Hannibal Lecter, move over. Dr. John Cray is the new resident physician on the psycho ward. Hannibal the Cannibal Took one victim's face in SILENCE OF THE LAMBS in order to effect his escape. Dr. John Cray, who runs a mental hospital, makes this a habit. His signature is as chilling as the MO Then, to his astonishment, Cray begins to suspect That Someone is Actually stalking him! The events are contorted and twisted with gleeful abruptness by "newcomer" Prescott and you would swear That Cray's captured victim will never escape his deadly web of deceit. Of course, Cray's uncharacteristically sloppy handling of incriminating evidence is the only implausible part in the whole book but it does not mar what will prove to be a fine thriller by the author of COMES THE DARK AND THE SHADOW HUNTER.
