The Face of the Deep

In The Face of the Deep, a series of brutal rape/murders puts Akron police detective Robert Fontenot and his beautiful partner, Lauren Reynolds, on the trail of a vicious and powerful killer carefully selecting his victims to satisfy his lust for dominance. As the killer's plot is revealed, Fontenot finds that he must not only match wits with a murderer as clever as he is maniacal but also come to terms with his past, which eerily parallels that of the killer.
