Description

Tor, 93. ISBN:0-312-85531-1. First Edition. dj slightly wrinkled at spine, spine ends bumped and top boards bent, otherwise a very good book and near fine dustjacket in Brodart. Recently three young women have been brutally assaulted and killed in Philadelphia. These murders shock even a cop who has seen every kind of tragedy, even personal---Lt. William Fogarty. He meets the mother of the latest victim and vows to bring the killer to justice. With the help of forensics pathologist, Josef Tanaka, who provides the only lead, they join forces and go forth into the city streets and into the fearful world of the "killing" martial arts. Tanaka claims to know the method of how the victims were killed---a karate strike know as "nukite" or "the spear hand". They go after the evil person who kills this way, Mantis, who has no conscience or remorse. Both Fogarty and Tanaka are in grave danger.
