- Matthew
- Locke
- lives
- in
- a
- place
- that
- he
- has
- hated
- for
- far
- too
- long.
- A
- sprawling,
- violent,
- dirty
- city
- where
- no
- one
- cares,
- and
- most
- people
- would
- sooner
- beat
- you
- to
- a
- pulp
- as
- look
- at
- you.
- He
- exists
- day
- to
- day,
- getting
- by
- in
- the
- shadow
- of
- his
- ex-girlfriend
- and
- her
- possessive
- new
- partner.At
- least
- the
- city
- provides
- a
- cover
- of
- sorts.He
- has
- no
- love
- for
- what
- he
- is,
- either,
- whatever
- that
- might
- be.
- He
- does
- what
- he
- does
- because
- he
- needs
- to,
- not
- because
- he
- likes
- or
- wants
- to.
- So,
- when
- it
- seems
- that
- a
- serial
- killer
- is
- stalking
- the
- streets
- of
- the
- city,
- claiming
- the
- lives
- of
- the
- sort
- of
- people
- least
- likely
- to
- be
- missed,
- Matt
- gladly
- takes
- advantage
- of
- the
- situation.
- Before
- too
- long
- however,
- he
- starts
- to
- realise
- that
- the
- killer
- might
- have
- an
- agenda
- of
- their
- own,
- and
- the
- police
- might
- soon
- start
- to
- have
- the
- same
- suspicions.
- Matthew
- Locke
- will
- have
- to
- make
- a
- choice;
- whether
- to
- accept
- what
- he
- really
- is,
- as
- well
- as
- what
- he
- can
- be.He
- will
- find
- that,
- whether
- he
- likes
- it
- or
- not,
- sometimes,
- change
- is
- necessary
- in
- more
- ways
- than
- one.The
- debut
- novel
- from
- Lee
- Glenwright,
- author
- of
- Ripe,
- and
- Others
- and Insatiable.
