- Synopsis
- when a string of murdered young women are found violated by i floral calling card, the New York City Police Department launches an all-out effort to catch the killer who is dubbed "The Lover." But Detective Joe Keough, though branded a liability by the department and dumped at an out-of-the-way Brooklyn precinct, believes that the murders are the work of two men. With nothing to lose, he's willing to challenge the system that scorned him in order to get at the truth. When a fellow cop is killed for becoming too interested in matters his superiors want left alone, Keough decides to take on the mayor, the police commissioner, and the unscrupulous leader of the "Lover" task force. If Keough fails, young women will continue to be raped and murdered and the pall of fear hanging over New York City may bubble over into panic. Alone with the Dead is more than just the story of two serial killers; it is the struggle of one brave man battling the intransigence of the Job in order to release New Yorkers from the tvrannv of fear.
