Flinch by Robert Ferrigno
A murder/robbery on a stretch of beach just south of Laguna. A gang killing in Santa Ana. A young woman gunned down taking out the garbage. A high school track star shot during a dawn workout. A cook killed after work. A computer salesman found dead in a parking lot. A half dozen murders in the last month - unnoticed and unsolved. Like the note said. An anonymous note to investigative reporter Jimmy Gage from someone calling himself 'The Eggman' claiming the killings and threatening to come after Jimmy. Is it a hoaxer? The police think so, apart from Detective Jane Holt - assigned to the case but pulled off it. But Jimmy is driven to discover the identity of the serial killer no matter where the search takes him and it takes him right into the heart of danger.
When investigative reporter Jimmy Gage receives a note from someone dubbed 'The Eggman,' claiming to have killed half a dozen people in the last month and now coming after him, the police consider it a hoaxGage, however, takes it a bit more seriously as (with disgraced Detective January Holt) he starts a search for the cunning and elusive killer. Most of Ferrigno's novels have been optioned by Hollywood, and it is not difficult to see why. His prose is taut, his characters three-dimensional and the mastery of detail is impressive. Like his other books, Flinch contains a romantic centre inside its hard-boiled noir exterior, and the connotations for star casting are obvious.
After graduating with an MFA in fiction writing from Bowling Green University in Ohio, Robert Ferrigno moved to Seattle, Washington where he tried teaching college students but gave up and spent the next five years playing poker and working as a day labourer. His books, all romantic thrillers set in Southern California, have been published in ten countries. He currently lives in the Pacific Northwest with his wife and four children.
