The job was all he had left, and now to keep it, he was turning against his own people. MORE THAN THREE DECADES WITH THE Minneapolis Police Department, and before then, eight years of US Navy SEALs Special Ops experience equips Samuel Culhane with the tools he needs to lead the investigation of the gruesome Glenwood Avenue murders. Characterized by the victims' massive skin and nerve tissue deterioration, the deaths become sensational media fodder and turn a not-so-flattering spotlight on him, his partner and his superiors. The growing notoriety brings unwanted political pressure from higher-ups with their own hidden agendas, and soon both his bosses and the real killer have him in their sights. The body count grows and Samuel is forced to use the only 'bait' he has left to draw the Glenwood Avenue murderer out into the open - himself and the enigmatic "Person of Interest" Simon Toors. HE MEETS HIS ADVERSARY IN A COMPELLING CLIMACTIC SHOWDOWN, BUT SAMUEL'S PERSONAL FAILINGS PROMISE HIS OWN DEFEAT.
