The new addition to The Serial Killer Anthology! Get it today! Can be read as standalone. Facing execution, Arizona death-row inmate Travis Newsom, "The Compass Killer," has a last wish: he tells Rev. Stan McLogan he wants to learn more before he's dead about the families and friends of his victims as well as the family he abandoned. McLogan thinks it's a great opportunity to identify additional victims that Newsom may have killed beyond the ones he left small round compasses on in 1998 after murdering them. He asks his friend, Santa Monica Detective Nour El Masry, if she'll help with the research. The task is far from straightforward, however. McLogan's prison discussions with Newsom take surprising psychological twists and turns, reflecting both men's own agendas. El Masry's research raises questions about Newsom's background and what he's sharing. And Arizona politics put the execution at risk. As deadlines approach, McLogan questions his involvement with the prisoner, and Newsom discovers the young minister is a formidable adversary and not the naïve soft touch he imagined. El Masry, meanwhile, finds new information about the origins of Newsom's life of lies and violence. The Compass Killer, the fourth book in the Serial Killer Anthology, brings together elements of the series' three previous stories: The Deadly Samaritan (McLogan's parents and a 1992 serial killer case); Killer Dead, Victim Alive (Santa Monica Detectives Greg Nichols and Mollie Granger), and Hunting a Cat in Dogtown (Nour El Masry, Nichols and Granger).
