For Edgar
Sheldon Rusch
A killer inspired by a master of the macabre. A detective
tracking the tell-tales signs of his crimes. A mystery that
binds them in an ingenious nightmare. The crime scene: a human skull impaled on a tree,
trailing a colored ribbon. The twist was the gold-painted
scarab. Special Agent Elizabeth Taylor Hewitt recognizes
the tableau—only the first in a series of slayings
honoring the tales of Edgar Allan Poe, and committed by a
madman known only as The Raven. Anticipating The Raven's next move, Hewitt seeks the
help of her former lover, an expert on Poe. It's a race
against time as they struggle to understand the motives of
the killer—by delving into the twisted mind of
literature's dark genius. But Hewitt herself becomes a pawn
in The Raven's triumphant endgame: a magnificent and final
homage...for Edgar. A brilliant tale of modern-day detection—and a case
that echoes one of literature's darkest imaginations.
