Gardner writes some kick ass suspense books that defy gravity. Full of twists, turns, surprises and spine tingling edge of your seat thrills, it's like a roller coaster ride in a book. The pages fly by and before you know it you've been up all night.

Eddie Como has been convicted of the rape of 3 women and the rape and murder of a fourth. The three survivors' have become friends and their own support group which they call The Survivor's Club. On the day of his sentencing Como is murdered during the transfer to jail. And the alleged assassin is killed in a bomb explosion minutes later. Soon thereafter a series of rapes occurs, all appearing to have been committed by the dead man, Eddie Como. Detective Roan Griffin, recently returned from bereavement leave after the death of his wife, is handed the case. Are the three women somehow involved in Como's death? And who is behind the subsequent rapes? The ending is a real nail biter, heart in mouth race to the finish, and well worth the ride.
