reviewed Final Victim on
Leonard Land is a 7' tall, completely hairless computer genius, wired to the cyberpunk subculture of Death Metal and Satan worship. He is also a twisted, multipersonality maniac who is systematically murdering women. When he is The Rat, he is smart and cunning; when he becomes The Wind Minstrel, he is God and the Devil. The Rat only covets women; The Wind Minstrel possesses them.

Hot on Land's trial is a formidable, if unlikely trio of heroes: John Lockwood -- a renegade US Customs agent who never met a rule he didn't break or a regulation he didn't violate; Karen "Awesome" Dawson -- a beautiful and brainy forensic psychologist who never met a challenge she couldn't overcome; and Malavida Chacone, a street-wise hacker who never met a computer program he couldn't crack.

They pursue their quarry throug the convoluted corridors of cyberspace and deep into the Florida swamps. But when Land discovers who has been infiltrating his programs, his nemesis becomes his prey. The hunters are now the hunted, and they must stop Land before he claims...the Final Victim.

As with all Stephen J. Cannell's books, this is one you can't put down!
