13 1/2 is a taut and terrifying 'stand-alone' psychological thriller.
After only a week on the stands, it made its appearance on the New York
Times Bestseller list.
Polly Deschamps suspects there might be a connection
between her beau and a series of decades-old murders. Two broken pasts collide in an uncertain present
carrying the reader from the horrifying 1970's murder spree of a
child--dubbed "Butcher Boy" by a shocked public--in Rochester,
Minnesota, to Polly, the abused daughter of Mississippi "trailer trash,"
to post-Katrina New Orleans.
