Synopsis

THE THIRD BLOCKBUSTER THRILLER IN THE KRUG & KELLOG SERIES...WHICH BECAME THE HIT TV SHOW "THE STREETS OF SAN FRANCISCO" It’s the socially turbulent 1970s. A controversial therapist secretly records his sessions...until he’s brutally murdered. Homicide detectives Al Krug and Casey Kellog discover that key tapes have been erased...recordings that could tie the therapist to the mysterious disappearance of one of his former patients, a psychotic teenage girl who may also have been his lover. But the cops soon realize that the killing is only beginning....and that a dark secret has roused a demon. “Weston writes smoothly and uses a good deal of sharp dialogue,” New York Times “Hard-hitting and eminently readable,” San Francisco Chronicle

About this title

About the Author

Carolyn Weston grew up in Hollywood during the Depression. She played hooky from school in movie theaters and libraries, honing the craft that would make her books so remarkable. During World War II, she worked in an aircraft plant and then did odd jobs around the country before writing Poor Poor Ophelia, the first Al Krug / Casey Kellog police procedural... which became the hit TV series The Streets of San Francisco. Two more books in the series, every bit as good as Ed McBain’s 87th Precinct and just as memorable, followed and all three are proudly being published by Brash Books.
