Heartless - Ivory Reg

Atlanta detective Jack Novak is about to face the toughest case of his career-and possibly the most dangerous. First, though, he's got to get his head on straight, with the help of attractive psychiatrist Laura Benjamin. Does Jack have a crush on her? Of course not. Is he lying to himself? Maybe. His "treatment" is put on hold when he's called into a murder case.

Jack thinks the murderer has to be a sick bastard. He must like pain, but he also must be brilliant, as this killer leaves no clues. Jack has nowhere to start, but, hey, that's never stopped him before. He's a great investigator, and he'll stop this monster, no matter the cost, even if Jack is a little strung out from his last few cases.

Soon, the murderer makes his connection to Jack. Things take a tragically personal turn, and Jack's mind is more screwed up than ever. Still, the psycho killer known as Kennedy won't get away, especially not now that he's threatened people Jack loves. What does it take to catch a monster? As Jack finds, he might have to do something monstrous.
