Story Description

"I know who you are."
"No you don't."
"I'm coming after you."
"No you won't."
"Watch me."

Special FBI agent Jay Fletcher knows how to catch serial killers. She's developed a computer program that identifies the most vicious murderers in
America.

But Jay's
Washington bosses have told her to stop. She can't use her program. It violates the Constitution. It violates these sick killers' civil rights.

Now Jay's been transferred to a tiny office in Sante Fe. She's instructed to stay out of multiple murder cases. As far as
Washington knows, she is.

Like hell she is.

Jay is going on-line.
She's going to track down the killers.
What will she do when she finds them?
She says...watch me.

Reviewing

Ethical dilemma fuels hacker thriller     Holt's debut thriller features FBI agent and computer hacker Janet (Jay) Fletcher, whose zeal doesn't always follow proper legal channels. When her illegally obtained evidence blows a murder case, she is assigned to an arson detail in Santa Fe. But she can't help running her computer tracking system to find a local serial killer.

Find him she does but her methods are not court admissable. Agonizing over what to do, she finds herself face-to-face with the killer - and evidence of an on-line network of people like himself - serial killers who've made a game out of ritualistic murder.

Holt knows computers, and uses this fantastic scenario to dazzle rather than confuse the reader. The action never flags but even more interesting is the ethical nail-biting. With expert manipulation, Holt fires the reader emotionally with gruesome murder scenes then asks "What's more important - stopping a serial killer or obeying the law?" And to really make it disturbing, Fletcher begins to get a thrill out of her rogue vigilantism. Exciting from first page to last.

 

Good, Almost Great      This was a good read. I would've given it five stars if it didn't have the Killer Webboard and meeting thing. Not very realistic. Most serial killers don't have the mindset to interact like that I don't think.

But it was a good book, no doubt about it. Me for, I'm someone that likes extremely realistic type fiction. Like -Killer On the Road- or -The Alienist-

 

It is easier to be forgiven . . . . .     If you like a strong minded, intelligent and very capable woman who is fed up with the limits and pettifogging details of today's rule-bound society, then you'll love the growth and daring of Special FBI Agent Janet Louise Fletcher.

Industry reviews
The line between good and evil vanishes in this debut thriller about serial killers who talk shop on the Internet and the vigilante FBI agent who chases them through cyberspace. Talented agent Jay Fletcher holds graduate degrees in psychology and computer science and has even designed a computer template for the FBI. When her zealousness compromises a case, she's packed off to Santa Fe to cool her heels. While participating in an arson investigation, Jay stumbles onto "Special K," an Internet game for serial killers. One killer looks like and obsesses about Leonard Nimoy. Another, aptly named Iceman by the FBI, parasitically lives off the identities and credit cards of his victims. This grisly, disturbing, yet fresh novel raises numerous complex questions for our high-tech society. Highly recommended for all fiction collections; most libraries can expect requests. [Previewed in Prepub Alert, LJ 6/15/95.] Susan A. Zappia, Maricopa Cty. Lib. Dist., Phoenix
