"The One Hand tells the story of Neo Novena detective, Ari Nasser--a grizzled homicide detective who's about to retire with an enviable record, until a brutal murder occurs bearing all the hallmarks of the 'One Hand Killer' ... which should be impossible since Ari already put him away not once but twice in years past. In The Six Fingers, Neo Novena archaeology student, Johannes Vale has always been so very in control of his life. But when he commits a brutal murder using the M.O. of an historic and notorious serial killer, everything begins to spiral out of control ... and Johannes doesn't remember doing it. What follows is a deadly cat-and-mouse game told through two intertwined narratives. Both men will stop at nothing to unravel the secrets and ciphers of this case--but each revelation only leads further into the dark heart of this future-metropolis"-- Provided by publisher
