<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Science and mysticism, nature and greed collide in this mind-bending, heart-pounding conclusion to Gruber's trilogy featuring Miami detective Jimmy Paz, who's called out of his self-imposed retirement to track a savage killer.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>"Like settling down with a Gabriel Garcia Marquez novel--if it was rewritten by James M.
