Thrust Home by Richard Charles Hoyt

Description: Porter Manning is living a nice, quiet life earning a living as a psychotherapist in Tucson, Arizona when he is drawn into an FBI investigation involving a serial killer. The FBI recruits him because he has been doing groundbreaking work on profiling serial killers using, what he calls, a floating profile.His task is complicated by the fact that the girl friend of a friend of his is one of the killer's victims, which also, in the eyes of the FBI may make him a suspect too.Bill Mcdonald, Porter's friend is way too inquisitive as to what's going on with the case and comes under heavy suspicion, but he has alibi's for every one of the killings and seems to be innocent and just an overly concerned lover. All but one of the killings take place in Reno, Nevada and Porter is thrown together with a forensic psychologist who works for the Reno police department, Doris Lang. Together they work the case and in the process fall in love. As they get closer to figuring out the "Cyrano" killer he gets angrier with them for throwing him off his patterned destination. His anger is intensified when Porter goes on local television and labels him evil incarnate, and just another sick puppy who can't tolerate not having things his way. This goads the young killer, a Desert Storm veteran suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder that leads to a recurrence of childhood psychosis and remembrance of family murders to go after Porter through Doris. There is a confrontation where the men clash and both Porter's and Doris' lives are in the balance. Looks like it may not have been read. Signed by author "To Bob. Read with care. Thanks.
