American Quartet

Fiona FitzGerald grew up as a senator's daughter, but she has made her own name as a homicide detective in Washington, D.C. When a killer begins staging murders with a strange and unsettling method, she is assigned to the case in the nation's capital.

As she follows the trail, Fiona discovers the dark sexual and violent fixations of a politician who once carried social prestige but whose career has collapsed. The novel opens the Fiona series, and the later books are American Sextet, Senator Love, Immaculate Deception, and The Ties That Bind.
