| | | Twenty-five years ago, Jeffrey and Susan Clayton fled their tyrannical father--a man who was later suspected in the heinous murder of a young student. Though the father was never charged, he committed suicide. Or so it seemed. For someone has sent Susan a cryptic note. Once deciphered, it carries a terrifying message: I have found you.
Meanwhile, a serial killer has invaded a tightly controlled community. Is Jeffrey Clayton's father the source of this latest killing spree? The authorities think so--and they present Jeffrey, now a noted expert on serial killers, with a challenge: Find the butcher responsible for the newborn spate of carnage. Find your father. . . .
Annotation:
In the near future, criminology professor Jeffrey Clayton begrudgingly accepts the job of tracking down a serial killer running rampant in the 51st U.S. state--but soon discovers the killer may be his own father.

"How much you enjoy 'State of Mind' depends on whether or not you find the future that Katzenbach creates and his villain plausible. Katzenbach is very good at world-building, and his imaginary Western Territory is frighteningly believable....If you accept Katzenbach's premises, you will find 'State of Mind' to be a well-written, well-plotted thriller." - Martin Morse Wooster 10/19/1997 |
