Key Death (A Nicholas Colt Thriller)

Nicholas Colt: world-class guitarist with a crippled hand, private investigator with a revoked license. His cash-under-the-table “security consultant” jobs are few and far between, but his crumbling self-confidence finally gets a boost when a young woman with deep pockets comes to him for help. Wanda Taylor has a terminal illness, and she wants to find her biological father before she dies. Unfortunately, Colt soon discovers that the father in question was shot dead two years earlier in Key West. With his client determined to see that justice is served, Colt heads down there with more questions than answers. And, with a serial killer known as The Zombie — a brutal psychopath who saws off the tops of his victims’ heads, scoops out their brains, and reassembles their skulls with Krazy Glue — on the loose, it’s no wonder some of the locals have redubbed the island Key Death.
