Chimera: A Psychological Thriller

By: Morgan, Chuck

"I wonder how the cops will interpret the scene-random, brutal, senseless. They will not see the design, the order, the absolute absence of chaos." When a cold case spiral resurfaces, the evidence points back to one of their own. FBI Special Agent Dirk Trainor must confront the unthinkable: is one killer learning to be two-or is something far darker linking blood, geometry, and murder? "Self-control is the only thing that separates the hunter from the idiot." This tense, forensic thriller blends procedural precision with psychological suspense, pulling readers into a labyrinth of adoption records, staged crime scenes, and a spiral signature that grows more perfect with every kill. Haunted by fugue-like visions and a DNA result that undercuts everything he believes about himself; Trainor and his partner Jill Quarters must race against time before the spiral claims its next victim.
