Point of Impact by Jack Curtis

Point of Impact by Jack Curtis
Synopsis
After an ominous prologue in Dartmoor, a sniper begins picking off random victims in London. Pursuing the killer, Scotland Yard maverick Robin Culley encounters menace at every turn from such sinister figures as an Arizona art collector who possesses people as if they were so many paintings. Another key figure is Culley's ex-wife, struggling with her conflicting feelings about a reconciliation: ``It's like being in a house where you used to live, but you can't quite remember its danger points.'' Throughout, events are made more chilling by the author's characteristic air of detachment--``There are a lot of dead people. It looks like a madman. So it probably is.'' Moods and locales change with lightning precision, with rarely a missed beat, and seemingly disparate plot elements are ingeniously tied together.
