A serial murderer is on the loose targeting rapists and child molesters and Deidre Caffrey is perilously close to putting the puzzle together and revealing the identity of the "Vigilante"
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
This first novel by the editor of Gauntlet, a magazine devoted to fighting censorship, takes its time letting the audience in on its real story, but readers with patience will be amply rewarded. Hungry Eyes seems, at first, to be a fairly traditional story about the hunt for a serial killer. But it gradually becomes a two-character drama, a battle of wits between the killer and Deidre Caffrey, a former newspaper reporter now working for the mayor's office. Deidre soon learns (or thinks she learns) the killer's identity. But instead of telling the police, she conducts her own investigation, using information she discovers in a series of newspaper articles. The novel is ultimately the story not of a serial killer but of a reporter who must answer one of the toughest questions: Where does journalistic privilege end and moral responsibility begin? Does she have the right to keep certain information to herself, even if it means that people might die? A well-written, thoughtful, and unsettling novel. David Pitt
