Description

Detective Jeremy Fisk tracks a serial sniper who has mastered state-of-the-art airborne technology to hunt his prey in this chilling thriller from the New York Times bestselling author and creator of the Law & Order franchise.

When a leaker named Verlyn Merritt releases sensitive documents from the NYPD Intelligence Division to WikiLeaks, some of the deadliest criminals have access to Detective Jeremy Fisk's unlisted home address. Within hours, three mysterious assailants arrive at his Sutton Place apartment. Who are they and why do they want Fisk dead?

Authorities quickly identify and arrest Merritt. But the case takes a sinister twist when an anonymous third party makes threats if authorities don't release Merritt immediately. Forced from his home and his bank accounts drained, Fisk confronts Chay Maryland, a reporter who has been covering Merritt's case. Fisk wants the journalist's help to get close to the leaker—to find out what Merritt really wants and who else is involved.

The investigation is nearly derailed when a serial sniper begins shooting people on the street who seem to have no connection to Merritt's case. The killer's aim is eerily accurate—and Fisk believes the shooter might be using a drone rigged with unusual sighting capabilities. Then the sniper contacts the New York Times and promises to kill one person every day, "for the greater good of the citizens of America.

With the clock ticking and millions of lives at stake, Fisk and Chay must find the mastermind before he can wreak havoc on a city paralyzed by fear.

        April 13, 2015
        In bestseller Wolf���s exciting third Jeremy Fisk novel (after 2014���s The Execution), the head of a Mexican drug cartel, angered that an attempt to kill the NYPD Intelligence Division detective has failed, calls in a master assassin to complete the job. Meanwhile, a fanatical killer using drones and calling himself Yodeler promises to kill a person a day until imprisoned whistle-blower Merritt Verlyn, who provided Intelligence Division documents to WikiLeaks, is released. The Joint Terrorism Task Force team is formed to deal with Yodeler���s threat and track down the thousands of missing documents that Verlyn stole. Fisk ends up a reluctant partner with New York Times journalist Chay Maryland, who may hold the key to the missing documents. In spite of a bewildering alphabet soup of agencies, gadgets, and systems, plus numerous subplots, Wolf keeps the story moving briskly. Fisk and Maryland make a surprisingly good team, and both play key roles in the startling ending.

        In Wolf's third Jeremy Fisk thriller, a sniper using a specially equipped drone is randomly killing people in New York. He promises to continue doing so until a leaker of police intelligence materials, who has been taken into custody, is released. The classified documents, as reported in the New York Times, reveal that the NYPD's Intelligence Division is collecting information on law-abiding Muslims throughout the city. The information, leaked by one Merritt Verlyn, includes Fisk's unlisted address, which his enemies in the Mexican Cartel are happy to have. They waste no time sending a hit squad to the detective's door. On the run after escaping that threat, Fisk, whose Social Security number and date of birth were also exposed, discovers that his bank account has been emptied and his credit cards have been suspended. With a mysterious party calling himself Yodeler threatening to kill one person every day until Verlyn is released, Fisk teams up with Chay Maryland, the Times reporter who's covering the story, to track him down. Maryland is targeted herself by a young undercover Chinese intelligence officer who needs the leaked documents in her possession to penetrate the firewall of the newspaper and then that of the Department of Commerce. Wolf, creator of TV's Law & Order franchise, is in complete control. The basic outlines of the story may be familiar, but his smartly drawn characters and situations lift the novel, as do the crisp chase scenes and shootouts. And the sniper and drone elements couldn't be timelier. Another solid thriller by Wolf, who is proving as dependable a novelist as a TV producer.

        Torn from today's headlines! Wolf must have that phrase framed above his desk. He's the very successful television producer of the Law & Order television franchise and the best-selling author of two previous novels featuring NYPD detective Jeremy Fisk. Using the familiar L&O signature, Wolf takes a newsworthy event or issue to use as a starting point for his plot. Here it's whistle-blowers. Verlyn Merritt, a hacker, is arrested after releasing sensitive documents concerning the NYPD Intelligence Division to WikiLeaks. Soon after, assassins attempt to take Fisk down, and, after that, a sniper begins killing random, innocent New Yorkers. Why? A series of text messages and e-mails to the NYPD demand the release of Merritt. Each day's delay will cause the death of another innocent. Fisk heads up the investigation, but each time he thinks he's made a breakthrough, the Yodeler, as the blackmailer calls himself, slips out of Fisk's grasp. A curfew is enacted, and the streets are deserted. Wolf is not just a brilliant TV producer; he's a fine writer, too. He keeps the pages turning and the suspense building. Exciting reading for suspense and procedural junkies.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2015, American Library Association.)
