Description
Dark Origins by Anthony E. Zuiker and Duane Swierczynski is the first book in the Level 26 crime thriller series, introducing a terrifying new category of serial killer. Law enforcement traditionally classifies murderers on a scale of 25 levels, ranging from opportunistic criminals to highly organised killers who plan and carry out brutal murders. But an elite, unofficial investigations team knows that a new level of evil has emerged.
Led by brilliant but reluctant investigator Steve Dark, the secret team is tasked with hunting down the world’s most dangerous killers. Their latest target is Sqweegel, a predator whose victims can be anyone and whose methods appear to have no limits. With a classification beyond anything previously recognised, this elusive killer represents a threat unlike any the investigators have faced before.
