What this book is about

A charismatic actor and a pathological surgeon form a partnership: one can identify victims and provide alibis; the other kills. Lucas Davenport investigates a murder that seems motivated by grief — and discovers a much more calculated predator. Eyes of Prey is the third Lucas Davenport novel — the two-killer dynamic is one of the series' most chilling.
