Nadine was five when she killed her first man. The man? Her father. Now, LBPD officer Nadine Kozok has taken another life. Chuey Medina, cop-killer twice over, made a vicious attempt to make Nadine his third badge carrying victim. Nadine survived the bloody battle. Chuey didn't. Nadine's sutures hadn't been tied, before she had achieved heroine status. Due to the TV news video of her violent encounter, her celebrity escalated to legend. Fame's rewards: A detective shield for Nadine, and assignment to the Widowmaker task-force. Widowmaker: Five years, thirteen bodies. Long Beach's primo vigilante-killer. Out there, relentless, unchallenged. Following the Widowmaker's bloody footprints over a widening gyre of homeless enclaves, industrial badlands, crank-fueled strip-joints, and dirtwater trailer-parks, Nadine finds her present path, intertwining with an old trail to her horrific past. Begins to question the veracity of her pursuit. While her steps are faltering, those of her pursuer are unerring. Cuchillo Medina is newly released from prison. His agenda: payback. Pain and anguish for Nadine, enough to make her rue the day she destroyed his brother Chuey Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

Nadine’s father had abused and murdered her mother and in terror as a child of five she killed him. So when she made detective, as a reward for stopping a cop-killer, her Chief assigns her to the Widowmaker task-force.
The Widowmaker Long Beach’s vigilante killer, targets and kills men who have abused women and children by 2 rounds of a .22 to the temple. Once, he’d left notes with the bodies. He no longer left the notes . . . just the bodies. Five years, thirteen bodies.
This appeared to be just a dark story of vigilante justice but rather it was a story of a family. I didn’t expect to shed the tears that came from liking and respecting the characters of the Kosov family – Vassily, Bill, Carol, Roy and Nadine, and Nadine’s partner Johnny Vance. (
