Fear the Night Book

A Madman's Obsession Is A City's Nightmare

He comes out when the sun goes down. He's made New York City his shooting gallery. The Night Sniper threatens to increase the body count—unless legendary homicide detective Vin Repetto is willing to engage him in a lethal game of cat and mouse. When the next victim is murdered right before Repetto's eyes, the game is set to begin. But The Night Sniper doesn't realize they're playing by Repetto's rules. . .

"A HEART-POUNDING ROLLER COASTER OF A TALE." —Jeffery Deaver on Night Victims

"A PAGE-TURNER. . .TWISTY, CREEPY." —Publishers Weekly (starred review) on Mister X

"LUTZ IS IN RARE FORM." —The New York Times Book Review on Chill of Night

A sniper's bullet kills a lowly theater district shop owner. It's the first of several killings in what becomes a twisted cat-and-mouse game between the "Night Sniper," so-called because he only strikes after sunset, and retired New York detective Vincent Repetto.
