Tiger kills naked man at the zoo. Think of the tiger as a gun. Who pulled the trigger?
On Palm Sunday, a white tiger kills and eats a naked man at the zoo. One thing's for sure. The big cat didn't hogtie the victim.
Veteran homicide detective Trueman North and his rookie sidekick, Veronica Huxley, catch the case. Their boss warns them to ensnare the killer by Easter. Or else.
True's investigation turns up no mere contest of cat and mouse. Even the titular killer nabbed himself some big game. And larger trophies await True among the corrupt officers of his department. True's boss sandbags him with an Internal Affairs investigation forcing the detective to solve two cases at the same time.
With time running out and an assist from an intrepid newspaper reporter, North investigates a world where the crimes of the past are revisited in the present. In the end, North and his partner will discover that when good intentions intersect with vengeance, sometimes a magnetic storm upsets a person's moral compass. Then, the resulting retribution ends in murder.
