Product Description The specialist is a serial killer with very specific, unique tastes. Kirsten is a jewelry designer whose hobby is caving, and she carries a lot of emotional baggage, aboveground or in the bowels of the earth. Her sister Emma goes missing en route to visit Kirsten. When Emmas ring mysteriously turns up in a newly discovered cave on Vancouver Island, Kirsten has to solve the riddle of an apparent impossibility, with the help of a few old friends and one deliciously tempting new one. Kirsten wants answers. The specialist wants her to join him for dinner. Gordon Aalborg is married to mystery author Denise (Deni) Dietz, and lives on Vancouver Island. From Booklist Kirsten is a Vancouver, B.C., jewelry designer and devoted spelunker. But neither vocation nor avocation has provided a respite from her worry over the disappearance of her globetrotting sister, Emma, the black sheep of the family. The possibility of coincidence is too remote when Kirsten, on a caving expedition, finds a piece of jewelry she made for Emma. Someone among her circle of caving friends may be responsible for Emmas probable death. Aalborg, a veteran Australian author, hits the creepy jackpot with his villain, a transcontinental Hannibal Lector wannabe with an appetite for the wellmuscled thighs of comely female cyclists. Masterfully, within the context of the horror, Aalborg also creates a mystery with at least three possible culprits among Kirstens circle of friends. Genuinely creepy and a damn good read.

Lee Child, author of The EnemyMasterfully, within the context of the horror, Aalborg also creates a mystery with at least three possible culprits among Kirsten?s circle of friends. Genuinely creepy and a damn good read. Booklist (December 2004) (Booklist 20041215)This book, written by Gordon Aalborg, is a real, genuine, bite your nails, thriller. The plotting is superb. He ratchets up the tension almost to the screaming point. The characters are believable, the settings splendid. The list of suspects keeps changing. If you want a good, solid read, this is it. Spelunkers, dont miss this one. Dorothy L, April 2005 (dorothyl.com 20050401)
