Summary: 4 Stars
An arrested prostitute calls FBI Special Agent Kimberly Quincy claiming to have information for her. Deliah Rose tells her that a wealthy john is taking street prostitutes and lets his poisonous spiders crawl on them and engage in other dangerous activities. She states that her friend Ginny was with him and has vanished. Delilah has found Ginny's boyfrind's school ring, that Ginny always wore on a neckless around her neck. The ring was in the john's car. She wants Agent Quincy to stop him.
Kimberly's associate, Sal Martingnetti, informs her that he's also worried that someone is picking off hookers. Twice he has had the driver's licenses of three women placed on the windshield of his car. But, no bodies have been found so it's difficult to get his superiors to permit him to mount an investigation. Even though Kim is five months, pregnant, a time when most women might begin to take things easier, she decides to work with Sal to attempt to stop the person responsible for his crimes against the prostitutes.
One night,they follow Delilah down a street where they know that Ginny's boyfriend was shot. Then, Kim realizes that Delilah is really Ginny. Ginny admits it and tells them that she calls the john Dinchara, a play on the word arachnid, because of his fetish with spiders. When Dinchara first took her, she realized that he got a kick when someone showed fear so when she didn't scream when he put a black widow spider on her, Dinchara let her live. He does make her turn tricks and once per month, he meets her and gets a pay off.
Kim and Sal must find a way to stop Dinchara and get enough evidence to arrest him. Then they find that he has a teenage boy helping him and is also grooming a younger boy. Now their mission is to stop Dinchara and rescue the boys.
The author knows suspense and has provided a story that will keep her readers turning the pages with anticipation. The characters are well described and the antagonist was truly evil, not only doing terrible things to people but training young children to help in his crimes. This well done novel will keep Gardner's fans coming back for more.
