Christian Greve is a photographer. He snaps family shots and shakes teddy bears at children to illicit smiles, but inside he's a seething ball of suppressed rage. He knows he's a genius, but all through his career, his models have sabotaged him. They move at the last minute. They shift or smirk when he's spent hours posing them just right. He's also a collector of porcelain masks - hand-painted masks he's created himself. When madness blends these two segments of his life, the city of San Valencez feels the sting. It's up to Detective Tommy Doyle, the "Psychos 'r' Us" Cop to track him down and put him away before any more women are killed.
This is the first novel-length Tommy Doyle mystery after his introduction in the novelette "Burning Bridges."
