A serial rapist and murderer is loose in the Las Vegas Valley. With a smoldering hatred for women, he unleashes a reign of terror that not only threatens the Valley's residents, but its very life's blood: the tourism industry.
The first victim is found dumped along a busy highway; raped, beaten and strangled. Las Vegas Metro Detective Steve Garneau, is assigned to the case. As the body count rises and the hunt intensifies, the battle between hunter and hunted becomes personal.Garneau races to find the killer, with the real possibility that the next victim could be his own wife or daughter.
Excerpt
The rapist continued to watch his now docile victim as his breathing returned to normal. He then placed his hands around her throat and began to squeeze, increasing the pressure gradually. When he sensed her going under he relaxed his grip slightly, allowing her to gulp some air. Then the snarl returned. "Die you whore! Die!" he shouted, resuming the choking with a vengeance. This time he didn't stop until Juanita Hernandez was dead.

The first thing that attracted me to this book was the play on words in the title (paradise/pair-a-dice). After the first few pages, it is obvious that the title is very appropriate. A serial rapist/killer stalks the environs of Las Vegas, terrorizing the city to ever increasing levels.
There are several sub-plots to this mystery, and the reader can’t help but anxiously turn the page to see how each of them plays out. In the end, the intricately woven story comes together in a flash of brutality as disturbing, as compelling, as the rest of the book.
Mr. Griffin’s knowledge of police work and crime investigation is readily apparent. No amateurish guesswork here. It’s as if you are reading from his own journal of experiences. This makes it all the more pleasurable to read.
In my opinion, Dennis Griffin is one of the very best mystery writers of our time. For anyone who enjoys this genre, his books are an absolute must!

LVMPD Undersheriff Richard Winget Reviews Killer In Pair-A-Dice on Amazon.com
Review by Richard Winget:
The story is riveting!! Dennis Griffin's book intertwines the real Las Vegas with his fictional story of a sociopathic, serial rapist and murderer. You can read the thinly veiled political figures, police and geography of the city while following his clues to the identity of the suspect. Once you begin reading, the story stays in your mind until you reach the surprising climax. Read this book, and you'll go hunting for another Dennis Griffin masterpiece.
