Fitzek writes amazing thrillers with lots of unexpected turns. It was HARLAN COBENEMMA who escaped. The sole survivor of a murderer dubbed "the hairdresser" in tabloids because to the trophies he collects from his victims. Or she believes that she was. Police are not persuaded. Neither is her spouse. She never even got a good look at her tormentor, but now she can spot him in any male. She quits her job as a doctor at the community hospital and withdraws from society after beginning to doubt her sanity. It is preferable to remain at home. Quiet. Anonymous. Safe. She is safe from harm here.
