Description

In the Pittsburgh Marathon, 18,000 people from all over the world will participate. Some 9,500 will run a half marathon, 4,000 will run in relays, while 4,500 participants will attempt the full 26.2 miles. Over two hundred will quit before it's over. More than one hundred will be injured and require medical treatment. And one man is going to be murdered.

When Dr. Cyprus Keller lines up to start the race, he knows who is going to die—for the simple reason that he's going to kill him.

Keller, a university professor of criminology at Three Rivers University and a former police officer, is an expert in criminal behavior and victimology. However, when one of his female students is murdered and his graduate assistant attempts to kill him, Keller finds himself swinging frantically back and forth between being a suspect and a victim. When the police assign a motive to the crimes that Keller knows cannot be true, he begins to ask questions that somebody out there does not want answered.

In the course of 26.2 miles, Keller recounts how he found himself encircled by a series of killings that have shocked the city, while he pursues—literally—his prey: the man who is behind it all.

        January 7, 2013
        The Pittsburgh Marathon serves as the backdrop for this impressive first novel from former police officer and Secret Service agent Hensley. Dr. Cyprus Keller, a former cop turned criminology professor at Three Rivers University, dodges a bullet by rejecting the advances of beautiful co-ed Lindsay Behram, in an embarrassing scene in his office witnessed by Steven Thacker, Keller’s “chronically miserable, and completely obnoxious, graduate assistant.” When Lindsay turns up strangled shortly afterward, Keller finds himself drawn into a situation that threatens his professional standing and provokes Steven to physically assault him. Meanwhile, Keller, an amateur marathoner, trains for the race with three colleagues, and then during the race resolves to take the law into his own hands. This artfully constructed mystery makes effective use of the third-rate-college setting and of Pittsburgh, as revealed by the course of the marathon, marked by each of the 26 chapters plus a brief final one headed “.2.” Agent: Felice Gums, About Words.
