When Sam West wanders into the Sunny-Side-Up Diner for the last time, hoping for a last slice of Mort's world-class pie, and one last look at a waitress named Delilah, he has no idea he's about to become the instrument of a great, kharmic cleansing. The only thing crazier than the seemingly inevitable trail of bodies following Sam and Delilah south is the fact that - as State Police and local sheriffs begin to investigate - they find no evidence.

Could Martin Talbot's elderly, Alzheimer-stricken mother, Judy, really have been the Black Stiletto? When Martin discovers several volumes of her diaries hidden by his mother, he is stunned beyond all imagination. His mother, the underground heroine of yesteryear? The famed, still unidentified woman who battled Communist spies, took on the Mafia, and preyed on common crooks? The woman who exacted punishment on evildoers without mercy? But it is all described, in great detail, in the diaries. Could it be true? Talbot is filled with doubt and disbelief.

But soon Judy suspects that Leo is not the white knight she first thought. Leo, who has connections with the West Coast mobs, has plenty of skeletons in his closet. His mysterious sister, Christina, who once served time for armed robbery, could also be a threat to the Stiletto's new life in California.

Alo Nudger, the St. Louis ex-cop is both the most normal of all fictional private eyes and the most surprising. He's got an uncertain stomach he doses with nonstop antacids; he doesn't like guns or violence; and since he doesn't feel any special affinity for what he does, from nosing into people's dirty laundry to confronting perps with the consequences of their misdeeds, and makes more than his share of mistakes, it's only natural that his business cards identify him in typographical error as a private defective.

Circling high over Rockefeller Center is a peregrine falcon, the most awesome of the flying predators. She awaits a signal from her falconer. It is given: The bird attacks, plummeting from the sky at nearly 200 miles an hour, striking a young woman and killing her instantly. By chance, newscaster Pamela Barrett witnesses the slaying. Her impassioned account of it on television that evening thrills the falconer - a brilliant madman who identifies with his deadly bird and, through her, seeks catharsis. He becomes fascinated with Pam and enmeshes her in a bizarre and deadly scheme.

“I was to make myself a killer.” In 1865, a man calling himself Septimus Whitehall slashed, shot, and burned his way from New York to California in a frenzy of violence. This is his own story, told in his own words. Seven names were on the doctor’s list. Seven men and women scattered all over the United States and its western territories. Seven souls judged guilty by a mysterious man with no past apart from the loss for which his enemies are blamed. The War Between the States is over, but Septimus Whitehall intends to wage a bloody war of his own and he is willing to cut down almost anyone who stands in his way.

"Kidnappers are frequently complex devious people," the detective had warned her. But that wasn't the half of it. What began as a routine kidnapping would end in much more--sins of unspeakable evil and terrifying violence. Who are these strangely sinister captors and who is their wickedly erotic victim? What has been happening to this strange young girl, and what has produced this nerve-fraying nightmare of sheer electric terror?

Publisher's Summary
Christian Greve is a photographer. He waves teddy bears at little children, arranges families like vases of flowers, and records graduations and dances for posterity. As a child, he was raised by a mother who thought he made a good mannequin to practice her makeup on... and a good plaything for her tricks.
Then Christian decides his fame as a photographer has been sabotaged by his models. They conspire against him, moving just enough to throw off his shots - laughing at him behind his back. When a chance encounter with two teenagers on the street escalates out of control, he takes matters into his own hands. People start to die.
Detective Tommy Doyle, known to the citizens of San Valencez California as "The Psychos 'r' Us" cop, finds himself with a growing string of dead bodies, some of the strangest clues he's ever run across, and very little time to find and stop a killer before the death toll rises.
This is the first full-length Tommy Doyle novel, following on the success of his debut in the novelette "Burning Bridges", published in the anthology All Hell Breaking Loose.

So disturbing...
Psychological thrillers are unnerving by their very nature. When that genre is told from the POV of the psychopath, the ick factor just ratchets up a notch. This listen was icky on so many levels. That's not to say this book was not awesome because it was. It was just a little too well-written.
The narrator was well-suited for this story. I very much liked Urban's performance. There were some editing issues (mostly repeat sentences) that happened enough to note it but he did deliver a very complex listen.
I usually like sequels but I'm so glad this book is one and done.
