Homicide detective Janet Barlow has problems. Her parents disapprove of her career choice, her male colleagues are almost all hostile, and her new partner is the biggest jerk in the Cambridge (MA) Police Department. To make matters worse, she can't remember the last time she had sex. But Janet's problems are just beginning. When young women start showing up naked with their necks snapped, she knows she's not looking at a routine killer. And when the FBI is called in on the case, she must add an arrogant federal agent to her list of headaches. Now if she could only get her mother to stop leaving those annoying messages on her answering machine.
THE CHAMELEON shifts back and forth between Janet's point of view and those of the serial killer and his victims. It is a compelling mixture of sex, violence, humor, and suspense.
