Publisher's summary

As Boston's most lethal serial killer jeopardizes the city's anniversary celebration, CSI Detective Stanford Carter desperately fights for forensic clues to nail the perp. But the "Plunger", after stabbing his victims through the heart, leaves only tarot cards as evidence. The mayor, demanding an arrest, is also keeping a secret.

Soon, something even more dangerous threatens the city. Carter must find out what it is before it steals his sanity and the life of the woman he loves.

Hell of a ride in this prequel

Even though there are a massive number of moving parts, the story and narrator stay grounded and provide an interesting ride through this early Stanford Carter adventure. Strap in for intrigue, murder, mystery and more.

A lot going on

Story really seemed unfocused to me, and really messy at the start. It all wrapped up nicely but the entire thing was super cheesy.

Chilling thriller!

Starta has done it again with this great story. He fills his plots with clues that will keep the reader guessing. I like how it has many layers, not just to the mystery, but the characters as well. Carter and Seacrest are in the middle of a case involving politics and serial murders. It's an interesting prequel in the Stanford Carter series, and it tells a good story about the beginnings of Carter and Seacrest.
