White Death

By Daniel Blake

The heart-stopping new thriller featuring FBI Special Agent Frank Patrese, on the trail of a crazed serial killer targeting Ivy League colleges.

ONE GAME
Two weeks before Kwasi King, chess’s answer to Muhammad Ali, is due to defend his world title, his mother is found brutally murdered yards from Yale University. A tarot card has been left next to her dismembered body.

TWO PLAYERS
Soon, more bodies turn up at other Ivy League colleges, all with tarot cards. But while some have been killed in a frenzy, others were dispatched with clinical precision. It looks like FBI Special Agent Franco Patrese’s looking for not just one killer, but two.

CHECK MATE
And while Patrese hunts, he knows that he too is being hunted, for he’s received his own tarot card. The Fool. Could he be the next victim of this macabre intellectual battle?

A smart, scary, and relentless storm overtaking a city held hostage by greed and disaster.' - Andrew Gross, NYTimes bestselling authorDaniel Blake makes New Orleans the setting for a story that's as hot, steamy and shot through with voodoo madness as the city itself. Highly recommended!' - Tom Cain, author of THE ACCIDENT MAN and DICTATOR -
