The Killing Cards

About the Book

The serial killer stalks the city, methodically choosing his victims on the symbolism of their names.  To mark his success the murderer places his calling card on each victim.  First, the Ten of Spades, next the Jack of Spades, followed by the Queen.  As homicide Lieutenant Mike “Ace” Amato works to identify the killer, it becomes apparent he is to be the crowning Ace of Spades in this deadly game of cards.

In his first novel, author Lou Campanozzi takes the reader on a ride through the streets of Rochester, New York, the very streets he patrolled as a cop, and through the alleys where, as a homicide detective, he pursued killers.
