Enlisting the aid of Mel Korinna, an art historian and denizen of the city's underground art scene, Carl attempts to unravel the mystery of the bizarre, "cut up" messages found at the murder sites. But Carl is in for more than he bargained, and when all signs point to the killer's identity he must search deep in himself to overcome his own worst nightmare.
