For the past six weeks, LAPD detective Matt Jones has been recovering from the wrong end of a hit man&#x;s bullet. Before he can look for payback, Jones finds himself enlisted in the manhunt for an old foe. Dr. George Baylor, the serial killer who escaped after murdering three coeds in LA, resurfaces on the East Coast. This time, an entire family has been slaughtered in their home outside Philadelphia, and the doctor&#x;s fingerprints are all over the crime scene. With panic rising, the FBI seeks Jones&#x;s help, and the hunt for this brutal mass killer is on. But so is the hunt for the man who paid to have Jones shot. When a second family is found murdered, the search for the killer becomes frantic, and Jones&#x;s shocking personal history explodes before his eyes. With his two missions welded together as one, Jones enters the madman&#x;s world&#x;a place of unimaginable terror&#x;and hopes that if he survives, he can find his way out.

This book puts forward a far-reaching new theory of archetypes that is functional without being reductive. At the centre of this is the idea that archetypes are adaptations to help us maintain inspiration over time.

Detective Matt Jones is on medical leave after pursuing a brutal serial killer when his Hollywood Homicide supervisor visits him late at night with urgent news. A body has been discovered buried in a remote Los Angeles park, and due to limited LAPD resources, Jones is asked to take the case. The victim is a fifteen-year-old girl, and the horror of the crime drives Jones and his partner, Denny Cabrera, to investigate fervently. As they sift through clues, they stumble upon an even more disturbing revelation: another body is out there, heightening the danger. The investigation reveals a potential link between the murders and a drug turf war involving a notorious mob figure and Wall Street interests, with city officials potentially complicit. As suspects emerge, they all seem intent on framing Jones, forcing him to run for his life. FROM THE EDITORS: "In this gripping thriller, Robert Ellis presents a chilling narrative inspired by a real-life murder he witnessed as a child.

On Detective Matt Jones's first night working Homicide in LA, he's called to investigate a particularly violent murder case: a man has been gunned down in a parking lot off Hollywood Boulevard, his bullet-riddled body immediately pegged as the work of a serial robber who has been haunting the Strip for months. Driven by the grisliness of the killing, Jones and his hot-tempered partner, Denny Cabrera, jump headfirst into the investigation. But as Jones uncovers evidence that links the crime to a brutal, ritualized murder that occurred eighteen months prior, he begins to suspect that there's more going on beneath the surface. When Jones discovers shocking, deep-seated corruption; a high-level cover-up; and his own personal ties to the rising body count, he's no longer sure he can trust anyone, even himself.
