For the past six weeks, LAPD detective Matt Jones has been recovering from the wrong end of a hit man&#x;s bullet. Before he can look for payback, Jones finds himself enlisted in the manhunt for an old foe. Dr. George Baylor, the serial killer who escaped after murdering three coeds in LA, resurfaces on the East Coast. This time, an entire family has been slaughtered in their home outside Philadelphia, and the doctor&#x;s fingerprints are all over the crime scene. With panic rising, the FBI seeks Jones&#x;s help, and the hunt for this brutal mass killer is on. But so is the hunt for the man who paid to have Jones shot. When a second family is found murdered, the search for the killer becomes frantic, and Jones&#x;s shocking personal history explodes before his eyes. With his two missions welded together as one, Jones enters the madman&#x;s world&#x;a place of unimaginable terror&#x;and hopes that if he survives, he can find his way out.

On Detective Matt Jones's first night working Homicide in LA, he's called to investigate a particularly violent murder case: a man has been gunned down in a parking lot off Hollywood Boulevard, his bullet-riddled body immediately pegged as the work of a serial robber who has been haunting the Strip for months. Driven by the grisliness of the killing, Jones and his hot-tempered partner, Denny Cabrera, jump headfirst into the investigation. But as Jones uncovers evidence that links the crime to a brutal, ritualized murder that occurred eighteen months prior, he begins to suspect that there's more going on beneath the surface. When Jones discovers shocking, deep-seated corruption; a high-level cover-up; and his own personal ties to the rising body count, he's no longer sure he can trust anyone, even himself.

A young Indian, driven by the tragic loss of a friend, embarks on a quest to uncover the truth behind the murder. This journey forces Kisuhs Kamkamoss to confront numerous challenges and the harsh realities of a world in flux, leading to profound personal growth and discovery.

The book examines the significant role of politics in shaping mental health care management during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, particularly after the 1888 Local Government Act. It focuses on London, revealing how local governance influenced mental health institutions amid broader societal issues leading to World War I. By situating London within global discussions on finance, welfare, and immigration, it highlights the intricate connections between mental health policies and prevailing ideological priorities of the time.
