Summary
"During the worst blizzard in memory, an FBI agent in a moving SUV in New York City is killed by a nearly impossible sniper shot. Unable to pinpoint where the bullet came from, and with the storm rapidly wiping out crucial evidence, agent-in-charge Brett Kehoe turns to the one man who might be able to help them: former FBI agent Lucas Page. Page, a university professor and bestselling author, left the FBI years ago after being gravely injured in a tragic accident. He is reluctant to engage again with the FBI. But he has an amazing ability to read a crime scene and figure out angles and trajectories in his head, and he might be the only one who can do what the FBI's computer models cannot: find the sniper's nest. With a new wife and family, Lucas Page has no interest in helping the FBI -- except for the fact that the victim was his former partner. Agreeing to help for his partner's sake, Page finds himself hunting a killer with an unknown agenda and top-notch sniper skills in the worst of conditions. And his partner's murder is only the first in a series of meticulous executions carried out with all-but-impossible precision. When Page starts to see a pattern, the killer changes tactics and Page's own family becomes a target. To identify and hunt down this ruthless, seemingly unstoppable killer, Page must discover what hidden past connects the victims before he loses all that is dear to him."--, Provided by publisher
