The streets of Redwood, California are being stalked by a brutal serial killer known as The Scattershot Slayer—a tall, lanky man who kidnaps and tortures his victims before creating grotesque pieces of public art with their mutilated bodies. Viola Santoro, a freelance journalist, is tracking Scattershot for her independent investigation in hopes of writing an exposé. After she unwittingly captures the serial killer's attention, she receives the scoop of a lifetime. Scattershot kidnaps Viola, straps her to an iron chair in his dungeon, and forces her to watch his acts of torture—over and over. He doesn't harm her, though. Instead, he gives her what she his motives, his dreams, his life story. Jon Athan, the provocative author of The Good, the Bad, and the Sadistic, invites you into the broken mind of a disturbed serial killer. This book contains scenes of graphic violence. This book is not intended for those easily offended or appalled.
