Scattershot - Paperback

by Jon Athan (Author)

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 expos . 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 wants: 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.
