New York City: home to world-renowned museums, theater, restaurants, iconic sports franchises. Central Park. Wall Street. And an infamous serial killer who s terrorized The Big Apple for decades. The year is 1995 and the NYPD has just graduated a promising new patrol officer named Karen Vail. The rookie s first day on the job is anything but uneventful, however, when she finds herself at the crime scene of a young woman murdered in an unusual manner. Vail is unsure of what she s looking at or what it means but it s a case that will weigh on her mind for nearly twenty years. As the years pass, Vail s career takes unexpected twists and turns as does the case that s come to be known as Hades. Now a skilled FBI Profiler, will Vail be in a better position to catch the killer? Or will Hades prove to be Karen Vail's hell on earth? The character who has captivated readers worldwide and who won the praise of literary giants Michael Connelly, James Patterson, and Nelson DeMille returns in a story that captures the experiences that shaped the revered profiler and made her the top cop she is today.

About the Author:
Alan Jacobson is the National Bestselling Author of several critically acclaimed thrillers. Alan's two decades of research and training with the FBI s profiling unit, the Drug Enforcement Administration, the US Marshals Service, Scotland Yard, SWAT, and branches of the US military have helped shape the stories he tells and the characters that populate his novels. The San Francisco Chronicle stated that Alan Jacobson researches his books like a good newspaper reporter, and then pushes the envelope into reality more thoroughly than the typical crime novel could ever allow. Alan s novels have made numerous Top 10 Best Books of the Year lists and five have been optioned by Hollywood. His main series character, FBI Profiler Karen Vail, was culled from several years of work with the FBI s Behavioral Analysis Unit and tracks unintentionally closely to the real female FBI profiler, with whom Alan has worked for the past fifteen years. Karen Vail has been described as My kind of hero by Michael Connelly and as tough, smart, funny, and very believable by Nelson DeMille."
Review:
Compelling and crisp, Spectrum satisfies the reader on every level. A pleasure to read. --Richard North Patterson, New York Times Bestselling Author

During my 40 years with the NYPD, I knew the streets of New York and the challenges a detective faces solving crimes in the big city. Alan Jacobson s Spectrum put me back on the street by bringing a gritty realism and noirish perspective only a fellow New Yorker can provide. Spectrum s authenticity enhances a riveting, well-told story. --Captain Edward Mamet, COMMANDER OF DETECTIVES, NYPD (RET.)
