The Specter Is Born

Someone has started killing people in Denver. The city's lead homicide detective, Michael Cassidy, has never had a murder case that he couldn't solve. He's also never hunted a killer that held a personal vendetta against him ... until now. Dubbed The Specter by the media for the way the murders are committed, this serial killer sends a message to the media. If Denver wants the murders to stop, then Detective Michael Cassidy must die. The department, against Cassidy's wishes, enlists the help of a brilliant young psychiatrist, Dr. Stacey Poole, in an attempt to gain insight into the mind of the killer. Hunting a serial killer is difficult. Hunting a serial killer when the citizens of the city you're sworn to protect may be trying to kill you? That's a whole new world. Who is this killer now known as The Specter? Why is The Specter so set on destroying the detective? How do you stop a killer who changes their M.O. each time they murder? How many must die before either the killer is stopped or the detective is murdered?
