Game

Description

An off-beat, blackly comic, thought-provoking thriller, and the second novel in the New York Times bestselling series starring Jasper Dent - 'Dexter with a conscience'. Jasper Dent has a special talent. He knows how killers think. Because his father is America's most notorious serial killer. And he taught Jasper every trick he knows. A series of gruesome murders in New York gives Jasper the chance to prove that he's not his father's son. It's time to hunt a killer. But the game has just begun...
