Read The Last Good Day Storyline:

Lynn and Barry Schulman moved their family to the leafy suburb of Riverside, New York, to be surrounded by family and old friends and escape the danger of city life. But when a headless body--which turns out to belong to Lynn's oldest friend--floats to the surface of the river, they realize Riverside may not be the sanctuary they were seeking. Instead, it's a town fraught with tension and simmering with sexual intrigue. Amid the McMansions bought with boom-economy bonuses and SUVs driven by soccer moms lurks a creepier sense of paranoia and a more sinister web of violent crimes than city dwellers could ever dream of. Stalked by Lynn's old boyfriend and terrorized by a menace that seethes beneath the seemingly placid routine of commuting, play dates, and white-wine evenings, Lynn and Barry engage in a primal fight for their lives and their future together. In this vivid and powerfully imagined thriller. Peter Blauner taps into the darkest fears of contemporary America. This bone-chilling story is further proof of what James Patterson has said of Peter Blauner: "Nobody writing suspense novels does it as well."- Page-turning suspense: Blauner's most intense and compelling novel yet - Gritty realism: a surprisingly realistic portrait of the dark side of contemporary suburban life.- The Intruder was a major bestseller; Slow Motion Riot garnered Blauner the prestigious Edgar Award. The Intruder will be redistributed in Warner mass market in May 2003, and will include a teaser chapter from THE LAST GOOD DAY. Extraordinary praise for Man of the Hour:
