A serial killer with an elaborate m.o. and macabre sense of humor is loose in LA.
But this killer, who defies the FBI profile, is unlike any the LAPD has ever encountered. The victims are prominent, super-wealthy, married men—including a famous mega-evangelist—involved in adu lterous affairs. They and their lovers are found murdered by close range blasts from a .44 magnum.
Even jaded, veteran homicide cops are horrified by the brutality, intrigued by the killer's consistency, and baffled by the apparent amount of time spent by the killer at the post-crime scene. A battered police department feuding with the FBI, slams into a brick wall.
Solution: Call John Roméo (he insists Ro-may-o). Roméo is a cocky, Harlem-born, black, 38 year-old retired L.A.P.D. homicide whiz, turned multi-millionaire Beverly Hills author and screenwriter. Some question his name, his style, and a self-confidence that borders on cockiness but no one questions his expertise. You either love or hate Roméo; there is no in-between. He has an eye for beauty and a nose for murder.
