- Synopsis
- A PROMISE OF DELIVERY Sixteen-year-old Anna Mary Kinver is raped and stabbed in the dank Rope Alley section of Leathergate. A former psychiatric patient, covered with blood, is picked up for questioning and subsequently let go. Soon thereafter, John Coffin, chief commander of the Docklands district, receives the first in a series of notes from an anonymous letter writer, calling himself "the Paper Man," who promises more bodies if Anna Mary's killer is not caught. As the case goes unsolved, more bodies turn up. Who is the Paper Man? What is his relationship to Anna Mary and the other victims? And how many times will he strike before Coffin discovers his identity, or Anna Mary's killer? “Butler has the light touch of a master and a beguiling hero in the somberly monikered Coffin.” —Booklist “Coffin... solves a complex puzzle in this richly textured police procedural.” —Kirkus Reviews
