by Michael Underwood ‧ RELEASE DATE: N/A
The crime was almost perfect and Colin Wise was perfectly flawed-- the total absence of any conscience, which makes him a big brother to The Bad Seed. As he sets out to live entirely unto himself, his need for capital is to be met by murder and forgery. A well calculated job, a war of nerves with the C.I.D., and a pretzel twist of poetic justice at the very end.
