Meanwhile, the bombings in the city intensify, with a mysterious group known only as the Chaos Committee claiming responsibility. Ford soon learns that the seemingly random attacks may be connected to the case he's on - and suddenly, his hunt for a missing woman might decide the fate of an entire city"--Provided by publisher. |
