Book Description:
Lawrence Sanders's masterpieces, The First Deadly Sin and The Second Deadly Sin set a standard for today's novels of psychological suspense. Now, Sanders' hero, Captain Ed Delaney, returns to solve a series of murders committed in the darkness of Manhattan's lonely hotel suites.

The victims are out-of-town businessmen. The killer is not insane. In fact, she's brilliant, and she's loose on the streets of New York as a beautiful angel of death. Her motive is to make men pay for their sins. Her obstacle is Detective Delaney-so eager to stop her, so expert in the ways of the criminal mind, and so easily seduced.

As a Lawrence Sanders fan - I found this one book a bit on the 'rough' side. He has written so many BETTER books.

Lawrence Sander's Deadly Sins series is EXCELLENT. I highly recommend the whole series for people who love a good suspense thriller. These books are hard to put down once you start. An oldie but a goodie!!

The author who forged the serial killer genre with The First Deadly Sin follows the chilling career of a murderer stalking in New York City's hotels and the quest of a retired policeman to stop him. Reissue.

Another great suspense from the pen of Lawrence Sanders. Delaney is busy in this one! A hotel killer and lots of twists and turns!
