Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. "When dark days come and monsters are at the door, I want you to stand behind Cain Machinovic. He will beat back the beasts, or be destroyed." Cain "The Machine" Machinovic, the man who single-handedly captured the fabled Oliver Alt, returns in this sequel to KILL BY NUMB3RS. He leads a crack FBI team self-dubbed the 7th Circle for the place in Hell that Dante designated for people who harm others. The agents hunt a particular order of psychopathy, serial killers. Top-notch operatives and a state of art computer nicknamed, Sherlock, put them at the top of their field. In a current investigation, they capture, then uncover a Pandora's Box of death when they arrest a man who is playing an online game with other murderers. The group plays a virtual video game, Clan Bean. An offensive game named after the Scottish legend, Sawney Bean, who, along with his incestuous family, murdered and cannibalized 1,000 people in the 15th Century. In real life, virtual life becomes an actuality, and the body count rises. The high-tech chase begins, and the FBI unwittingly expose themselves to the members of the game. No one is more prized than The Machine. This designation brings the meticulous and relentless Cain, directly into the crosshairs of danger. Pitting one incredibly evil group versus The Machine. Some would think it a fair fight. Those who know Cain comprehend that this battle will most likely be the end of Clan Bean. In life, there are at least two sides. Occasionally, one side overwhelms the other. That is when monsters arise and with them, heroes who battle to restore stability." "Using a razor sharp hunting knife, Steve could gut a deer with precision. This bag of human flesh presented little problem. A single black 110-gallon plastic bag did the trick for the butchered body. He taped a smaller plastic bag around the head. Then he used Gorilla Tape to fasten his arms and legs. There were a few final, but necessary, things to resolve. He drove the man's truck into the shrubs. Someone would find it tomorrow. Steve glanced at his watch. The trip to Appalachia National Park would take an hour. One last scan of the vehicle for anything he had left behind, finally, he felt confident. He jammed the accelerator with a roadside rock, popped the thing into gear, and it sent an impressive spray of stones spraying from its tires. "The sun disappeared behind the Blue Ridge Mountains. It would be a long night. He scanned the dead man's identification. It tickled him. His victim's name. Casey Sheehan, so ambiguous. Male or female? He must enjoy every second to savor the task of disposing of Casey. Who could tell when his next opportunity to hunt, would come? He slowed his truck. Exceeding the speed limit on these mountain roads could be treacherous. By midnight, Casey would be in his final resting place. Tomorrow he would sign on to Clan Bean's site and play the game with renewed vigor. Maybe, with this kill he could move up from Grunt to Shaman status, and if he ate some of Casey's flesh and made a video-vine of the act, he might become a warrior troll."

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Inside an old apartment building buffeted by a heavy winter storm, the quiet neighborhood of Duquesne Heights is the scene of a horrifying murder. An old woman's body, surrounded by blood and scattered roses, waits for some form of resolution. A young Pittsburgh detective is destined to answer this unspoken request. Cain Machinovic, a man of grinding resolve, is hovering on the brink. Solving homicides has peeled away layers of this young man's soul. Weary of his job and seven years of senseless bloodshed, the disturbing sight of Kendra Holland's body somehow re-ignites his determination. In Cain's Mind, solving the old woman's death might help restore his battered psyche. He vows to bring closure to the remains of an old lady's existence. In the wintry streets overlooking the Point of Pittsburgh, and with a newly rekindled light in Cain's somber soul, his quest begins. Life is never conveniently uncomplicated. The case becomes as monstrous as the twisted remains of Kendra Holland. The effort to solve this crime will tear apart his relationship with two women, and lead him into a morass of murder spanning nearly six decades. Unfortunately, as he closes in on a suspect, he finds that two people remain on the killer's list. Only Cain and the slayer know what's coming next. The evil criminal has a number in mind and is counting down the final days of each victim. Waiting for this killer is a man on fire with unyielding purpose, a man determined to stop the numbers from increasing. Review: Laurel Johnson, for Midwest Book Review Tate's novels always have three exceptional features: unique characters, fascinating plots, and the ideal location to complement said characters and plots. His first mystery novel is no exception. The main character, Pittsburgh detective Cain Machinovic, is a meticulous, single-minded savant when it comes to solving crimes. Cain's investigative techniques tend to be a little odd. He's not very likeable, but has gained his fellow police officer's respect. Cain's ex-girlfriend, Gretchen Adams, describes his personal and professional persona as "half animal, half machine." Gretchen owns a forensic lab with an intriguing sideline, her gift for criminal profiling. You'd think she and Cain would be the perfect fit, but his weird obsession with crimes and solitary suffering are too much for her to bear. Still, whenever Cain needs insight into criminal behavior, he turns to Gretchen. Sari Palmer, a young detective assigned as Cain's new partner, joins Cain as he encounters a case that has him stymied. At first she despises his idiosyncrasies and perceived arrogance. But she watches, learns, and is drawn to his peculiar methods. Cain thinks he's searching for a possible serial killer with an obsessive-compulsive mania for colors and numbers. The fun and fright of this mystery chiller is watching Cain work his way through the clues, and watching the battle between Gretchen and Sari to repair the damaged soul of Cain. If you like mystery novels, you'll have fun with this one. It has enough red herrings and twists to keep readers hooked from beginning to end. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. A sizzling bolt of lightning and a jellyfish send a ninth century boy on a multi-lifetime course. Nature's power and the genetic material of the immortal jellyfish, Turritopsis dohrnii, rearrange young Branac of Hvar's DNA. Sixty years later, Branac approaches death and fades into nothingness, to his surprise his body reforms, but to his regret, he returns as a teenage boy. Thirteen times, a new life begins with only bits and pieces of his memory surviving. To prosper, he must re-learn his story. In his present life in 2060, he adjusts to the new century with the help of Elodie, his human-like robot, and a new name, Smithwick Fowler. As always, his emerging hormones drive him. He seeks companionship but is reluctant to form a lasting bond. Living forever has made him wary of the heartbreak that accompanies love. No man should see his children die, but he has viewed the death of generations of his offspring, as well as many lovers, and twelve wives. The pain of loss has hardened his heart. Wick Fowler prepares for another century of life. With the knowledge that nothing goes as planned, he marshals his resources. With twelve hundred years of education in his DNA, he focuses on science in the Twenty-first century. Comfortably wealthy and driven to build on his previous lives, he hopes to enjoy his next life by contributing to humanity. A seemingly chance encounter with a fellow scientist, Isabel Aragon, ignites a passion he has rarely felt. Isabel is the twenty-six times great-granddaughter of an unrequited love he met in 1110. Their meeting foreshadows a conflict between an immortal man, and another man seeking immortality. The story of Wick and Isabel becomes an epic tale of betrayal, revenge, and a struggle to survive. Wick, relies on his past to defend his future. The future he faces is a momentous one. A friendship with a political activist entangles Wick in a plot bent on revamping the United States government. Tentacles of Time employs history and futuristic predictions by following a journey through Viking times, Medieval Europe, the Crusades, the Jamestown settlement, the Revolutionary War, and the future. The never-ending man has been an assassin, a monk, a man who abandons his family, and an honorable father. In the thousand-year trip to the future, he survives the plague, fights alongside George Washington, meets Abe Lincoln, and helps murder a Saint. He is a patriot, a womanizer, and a beacon of hope. Wick Fowler's amazing life spreads through time, not unlike the drifting tentacles of the Turritopsis dohrnii, which provided bits of its DNA to create the immortal man.
