A Killer's Essence: A Novel

A Killer's Essence: A Novel

In A Killerâ€™s Essence, already optioned for the movies, Zeltserman's unique talent (â€œdeserves comparison with the best of James Ellroyâ€ â€“Publishers Weekly) is back with full, sinister effect.
Stan Green is a jaded New York City cop assigned to the most shocking homicide of his careerâ€“and he finds only one witness, a neurologically damaged recluse subject to demonic hallucinations. Then the murderer strikes again. Stanâ€™s best hope is a man who claims to be surrounded by ghoulish apparitions. And thereâ€™s just a chance this witness isn't insane, but instead terrifyingly perceptiveâ€¦

Dave Zeltserman's grisly crime novel is backgrounded by the 2004 ALCS playoffs, when the Red Sox triumphed over the Yankees. A knuckle-whitening, surprising, and compelling trip into Stanâ€™s obsession with a brutal case, this serial-killer mystery is Zeltserman's darkest, most gripping work yet.
