A brutal murder...
In the desert just outside the bright lights of Las Vegas, a horrific discovery is made. The body of a young, beautiful Vegas showgirl is found – mutilated almost beyond recognition.
A detective with everything to prove...
Detective Sergeant Romulus Poe is struck by the similarities to an unsolved case from years ago – and a killer known as “the Bogeyman”. But when he discovers one of his colleagues slept with the showgirl, the case takes an even stranger twist.
A case which exposes the underbelly of a city...
As Poe investigates, he is caught up in Las Vegas’s hidden history – from Native American legends to modern scientific secrets. And when the body of another young woman is found, the race is on to stop a murderer who is becoming bolder with every passing day.
