Say what you will about him, Tim Bowman knows what he likes. A tender steak, cooked to perfection, is enough to make his day. But for a man of Tim's rather specialized tastes, finding just the right cut was the challenge. Fortunately, for a hunter of Tim's particular interests, that was less of a problem than it would seem. His favorite game animal?

Humans.

The only thing Tim loves more than the taste of perfectly grilled human flesh is his 1970 Cadillac Deville. After police discover his horrible crimes, Tim makes a run for it in his beloved Deville—and finds an unexpected passenger along for the ride. By the end of the conversation, Tim's life will change forever. Thanks to the patronage of a supernatural power with equally perverse appetites, Tim becomes one with his car to become something beyond comprehension:

The Car-nivore.

Reese Smith, a New York detective with a brilliant mind, makes it his life's mission to catch the killer. Simultaneously fascinated and disgusted by the cannibal's skill, he's determined to capture his killer—no matter how bizarre—before more lives are lost.
