I feel compelled to warn readers that this novel is very noir - some reviewers have described Gretchen Lowell as the "creepiest serial killer ever". Susan Ward, the reporter, has problems of her own, but she is desperately aware of the opportunities this assignment offers. This time the case will have maximum publicity with a newspaper reporter writing a series of articles about Archie and the case, and accompanying him to crime scenes. ![]() Now the city needs him to work again, to head the squad looking for Portland's latest serial killer, the Afterschool Strangler. His marriage has collapsed although he still loves Debbie, and she him, although she can't share him with Gretchen. Two years on, Archie still thinks about Gretchen every day, and visits her in prison every weekend. ![]() Although Archie is thought to be responsible for Gretchen's eventual capture, he knows that the truth is very different. Because of what Gretchen did to him, physically and mentally, in the ten days she had him, Archie hasn't worked for the last two years. Detective Archie Sheridan is famous in Portland as the man who headed the so-called Beauty Killer Task Force, and solved the case two years before, the one where beautiful psychopath Gretchen Lowell was responsible for the deaths over 200 beautiful girls. ![]()
