Brutal, inexplicable killings suddenly terrorize a city on the California coast. Stunned and confused, the police feel powerless to defend their city, their families and themselves against these meticulously planned "random" attacks by an unseen predator.... until they realize that the havoc might be a cover-up to something even more shocking. As tensions edge toward panic, a select team of investigators and crime lab specialists steps outside the law to fight back...but soon these dedicated men and women fall prey to the elusive Thanatos, a superbly capable professional killer, a relentless human hunter whose greatest weapon may also be his fatal flaw--fear itself. A real heart attack of a climax!
