Matthew Scudder's 12th adventure is at once a pulse-pounding thriller and an elegiac meditation on aging and mortality and the passage of time. Enlisted to investigate the seemingly improbable death rate of the members of a Club of Thirty-one, Scudder finds himself pitted against an unseen killer whose patience is equaled only by his merciless determination.
