#01 Privileged Lives: In a private suite at a New York hospital, Beatrice “Babe” Vanderwalk Devens awakens from a seven-year coma. The socialite and fashion designer is stunned to learn that her husband, Scottie, was brought to trial twice—and acquitted—for her attempted murder. Across town, the naked, mutilated body of a young man wearing a black leather bondage mask is found in an empty apartment in the Beaux Arts Tower, high atop the Museum of Modern Art. Seven miles away, off-duty NYPD lieutenant Vince Cardozo is relaxing on a Brooklyn beach with his twelve-year-old daughter when he gets the call. Cardozo’s investigation into the savage murder of the Beaux Arts John Doe takes him into the exclusive lairs of Manhattan’s elite. Babe Devens is part of that world. When Cardozo uncovers a shocking connection between the two cases, it could topple more than just high society. A Book-of-the-Month-Club featured selection.
#02 Deadly Rich: For alcoholic former actress Leigh Baker, the moment will always be suspended in time: seeing her daughter plunge to her death from the terrace of a sixth-floor apartment. Months later, the man responsible is convicted by a jury of his peers. Four years after that, he is out on parole. And one by one, those whose testimony helped put James Delancey away meet violent ends. Manhattan doyenne Oona Aldridge is the first. She is found in the dressing room of a trendy Manhattan boutique, her throat slashed. As more grisly murders follow, NYPD cop Vince Cardozo assembles a task force to stop the serial killer dubbed the “Society Son of Sam.” Is Delancey himself the culprit? With the city in a panic and Cardozo’s attraction to Leigh threatening to undermine the investigation, he follows a twisting trail that exposes the sins and excesses of the rich and infamous . . . and a vendetta more chilling than anyone can imagine.
#03 Mortal Grace: Suffer the children . . .The first body is found in a hamper in the woods. Her feet were tied with a leather belt. There are traces of incense on her dismembered body, candle wax on her skin, and strange crumbs on her lips. As more butchered adolescent corpses turn up—the victims of a serial killer whose signature is the communion wafer left in each one’s mouth—the evidence leads NYPD lieutenant Vince Cardozo into the sacred and moneyed world of Manhattan’s exclusive parishes. Desperate to find the monster who preys on vulnerable runaways, Cardozo uncovers a conspiracy that reaches to the city’s highest levels of power.
#04 Jury Double: When it comes to the dark side of humanity, Vince Cardozo has already seen plenty. But his encounter with cult leader Corey Lyle will challenge even Cardozo. Lyle stands accused of a brutal terrorist bombing and the murder of a Manhattan power couple. His trial transfixes the city—but nothing about the case is what it seems. While the prosecution and defense duel, an explosive secret lurks in the jury box: One juror is not the person she claims to be. Now Cardozo must race against the clock to prevent a terrible miscarriage of justice . . . and save a woman from a cold-blooded killer. In Jury Double, master storyteller Edward Stewart unleashes his most engaging thriller yet—an irresistible tale of deception, passion, and justice. NYPD detective Vince Cardoza is back–on a major double-murder case with an unforgettable twist. One of the jurors is not who she seems to be . . . and the outcome of the entire trial, along with the fate of several lives, will depend on the Jury Double. National media. Original.
