Hour of the Hunter

A critically acclaimed master of suspense, J. A. Jance, the New York Times bestselling author of Fire and Ice , transports readers into the beauty and mystery of the American Southwest . . . and into the very heart of terror. The hunter is free to kill again--and hour by hour, he draws nearer . . . The brilliant psychopath Andrew Carlisle spent only six years in prison for the brutal torture-murder of a young girl of the Tohono O'odham tribe. The testimony of Diana Ladd--a teacher on the reservation--put Carlisle behind bars, and now she can't ignore the dark, mystical signs that say a predator has returned to prowl the Arizona desert. Because no matter where Diana and her young son hide . . . he will find them.
