vig•i•lan•te
n.
1. One who takes or advocates the taking of law enforcement into one's own hands.
2. A member of a vigilance committee.
As much as it seems like the murders are justified, a nation based on a criminal law legal system leaves no room for vigilante justice. But that is exactly what Detective Angie Bartoni and her partner, Dan Roberts, are dealing with in the latest Bartoni Case File THE SHADOW MAN.
When a group of ruthless murderers and rapists are released early from prison, they soon find themselves the target of a determined vindicator. Someone has decided to put into action the old saying that ‘vengeance is mine’.
One by one the perpetrators of the hideous crimes inflicted on their victims are being hunted down and given the same treatment. While sympathizing with the vigilante to some extent, Angie still has a job to do and she is determined to stop the vicious murders. Angie knows that a civilized nation cannot allow vigilante justice take over.
Angie and Dan play a deadly game of ‘catch the vigilante’ before he murders all of the former perpetrators. No matter how hard they try, he always seems to be one step ahead as if he were nothing more than a shadow slipping into the night.
The twisted ending will surely catch you off guard when you find that things are not always as they appear. This is another fast paced Angie Bartoni Case File that you won’t want to put down until the last page.
