Synopsis
“First rate suspense, with a soupcon of horror in the Hannibal Lecter vein... You won’t be disappointed." ―Stephen King
From Peter Blauner, the writer Dennis Lehane calls "one of the most consistently bracing and interesting voices in American crime literature," comes a new thriller about a lone young cop on the trail of a powerful killer determined not just to stop her, but to make her pay.
In the summer of Star Wars and Son of Sam, a Long Island schoolgirl is found gruesomely murdered. A local prosecutor turns a troubled teenager known as JT from a suspect to a star witness in the case, putting away a high school football star who claimed to be innocent. Forty years later, JT has risen to chief of police, but there's a trail of a dozen dead women that reaches from Brooklyn across Long Island, along the Sunrise Highway, and it's possible that his actions actually enabled a killer.
That's when Lourdes Robles, a relentless young Latina detective for the NYPD, steps in to track the serial killer. She discovers a deep and sinister web of connections between the victims and some of the most powerful political figures in the region, including JT himself. Now Lourdes not only has to catch a killer, but maybe dismantle an entire system that's protected him, possibly at the cost of her own life.

Review
"Peter Blauner has created one of the most memorable psychopaths since Hannibal Lecter." - Washington Post "What James Ellroy did to L.A. in 'L.A. Confidential,' Peter Blauner does to L.I. in his new thriller, "Sunrise Highway."...A master class in how to write a thriller." - Newsday
"Excellent...A page-turner of the highest order." - Publishers Weekly (Starred Review)"The prose is economical and precise, the setting well drawn and the characters real enough to give you a chill the next time you cruise past a police car." - Associated Press"Blauner excels with strong, realistic characters, believable police work, and smart, propulsive dialogue. A highly readable and unnervingly close-to-home view of power in the service of evil."- Kirkus Reviews (Starred Review) "Nifty...Blauner keeps a tight focus on his regional setting." - New York Times Book Review
