Russian by James Patterson
When a serial killer crashes Detective Michael Bennett's wedding, he and his new partner uncover a gruesome string of cold-case homicides across the country.
Weeks before NYPD Detective Michael Bennett is to marry his
longtime love, Mary Catherine, an assassin announces his presence in the city
with a string of grisly murders. Each victim is a young woman. And each has
been killed in a manner as precise as it was gruesome.
Tasked with working alongside the FBI, Bennett and his
gung-ho new partner uncover multiple cold-case homicides across the country
that fit the same distinctive pattern—proving the perpetrator they seek is as
experienced at ending lives as he is at evading detection.
Bennett promises Mary Catherine that the case won't affect
their upcoming wedding. But as Bennett prepares to make a lifetime commitment,
the killer has a lethal vow of his own to fulfill.
