In the sultry maze of Rio de Janeiro, a troubled psychiatrist and a beguiling murderer ensnare Inspector Espinosa in a deadly game of cat and mouse.
When his daughter disappears and a patient emerges as the prime suspect, a hospital psychiatrist feels he's being stalked by the young man. Convincing himself of the patient's harmlessness, the doctor is thrown into turmoil when his daughter vanishes and the patient goes missing. Desperate for help, he turns to Inspector Espinosa.
But when the patient turns up dead, it unleashes a chain of mysterious deaths, each seemingly linked to the doctor and his former patient. As Espinosa delves deeper into the doctor's history, the lines blur between stalker and stalked, reality and fantasy, sanity and madness.
In this installment of the "seductive, fascinating" (The New York Times Book Review) series, Pursuit draws readers into the shadowy heart of Rio de Janeiro, where Inspector Espinosa must navigate a labyrinth of secrets to uncover the truth and catch a killer.
