They relish in taunting police around the world with odd clues and deep confusion--the modern version of the Victorian-era killer they emulate. While the original Jack sent letters to Fleet Street papers, they send pictures and online boasts and insults. In this fashion, they feed on each other's killings, a private community of death. Arrogant. Conceited.

And caught up in this web of death are the teenage boy's grandmother and grandfather--an ICU nurse and a former college admissions counselor with his own hidden, murderous history, an ex-Marine, Viet vet, still haunted by his time in that conflict.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen the five killers emerge from their shadows, this odd band of young and old will have to find a way to expose them. Or defeat them.
