Wolfe, a tenacious beat reporter for The Washington Star, tracks a D.C serial killer who butchers pregnant women and steals their fetuses, dumping the naked bodies with no identification in an obscure part of the city. When Laura is shown the body of victim number two, she recognizes her as someone named Janet who she had met at a reception for the Vice President of the United States. The victim is quickly identified as Janet Rausch, and Laura begins digging into her background. When the public Janet does not match with the private one, Laura begins to question whether there may have been more to Janets death than being a serial killing victim. The mounting evidence Laura accumulates stimulates her inquisitive mind into believing Janets murder was planned. Yet she is the only one to believe that theory. Her startling revelation confounds both her lawyer husband and her bestfriend, Max Walsh, Captain of Homicide for the Washington MPD. Laura persists anyway and goes from the dirty back streets of D.C. to the nations capital, to the Virginia suburbs, and into the polished halls of political Washington, as the public is terrorized by a third murder, very much like the previous two. 517 $aLaura Wolfe Thriller Series 610 $aFiction 610 $aCrime 610 $aSocial science 700 $aDonaldson$b Keith M.$01433952 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910162694203321 996 $aDeath of an Intern$93585010 997 $aUNINA
