The Beast: Thriller

by Jack Raymond

The size of this book is equivalent to 108 paperback pages.

A dangerous professional killer escapes from custody - and New York investigator Murray Weiser must nip at his heels. A bone-chilling police thriller

Vandermoore had managed to free his hands in the meantime. His right hand jerked forward with incredible speed. A stunned expression froze on the fake cop's face as Vandermoore hit him in the neck with a murderous hand edge blow. The uniformed man rolled his eyes and staggered. Vandermoore pulled him toward him and used him as cover, ripping the SIG Sauer P226 from his open holster - the standard weapon of all New York City police units. Vandermoore dropped sideways with the dead man as the MPi rattled away. Several dozen rounds rattled close over him, perforating the side front of a half-rusted van. Rolling on the ground, Vandermoore jerked the weapon up in his fist, then fired a single well-aimed shot.
