"Do I care about Speaker Kline's safety. In a word, no!"



Speaker of the House Denise Kline called Los Angeles home, but she wasn't well liked in her district or in Washington. Since she was third in line for the presidency, she had her own Secret Service detail, which she was notorious for slipping every chance she got. On her most recent visit to LA, though, her antics land her in the grip of one of the sickest underground killers in Los Angeles history. Deputy FBI Director John Swenson and Sheriff Jim O'Brian are pulled into the search, but both men have a conflict. Kline's past actions have both men feeling that her absence might actually be a good thing.

Inside Flap:

When Denise Kline, the Speaker of the House, goes missing, the Secret Service enlists the help of the FBI and the Sheriff's Department, but Assistant Director John Swenson and Sheriff Jim O'Brian seem almost apathetic about her disappearance. While Kline may be third in line to the presidency, Swenson and O'Brian mince no words about their dislike of her. The discovery of her body, however, exposes the existence of an off-the-radar serial killer with a peculiar culinary appetite. As the macabre tale unfolds, Swenson and O'Brian must set aside their feelings to find the killer before others fall victim.
