Books like The Cutthroat by Clive Cussler
In the year 1911, Isaac Bell, the chief investigator of the Van Dorn Detective Agency, is assigned a case that upends his experience with extraordinary investigations. The client is a young woman named Anna Pape, who ran away from home to pursue an acting career. Bell’s quest takes a grim turn when Anna’s body is discovered murdered, prompting him to carry out a manhunt. His pursuit reveals that Anna was not the only victim: petite, blond beauties like her are being slain in cities across the United States. The killings share disturbing similarities that suggest a single, ruthless serial killer. Bell must confront the terror of confronting a monster that has struck fear into even the most seasoned detectives.
