THE FOURTH BULLET

A serial killer, dubbed by the press the Goddess Slayer, is terrorizing Los Angeles.

Jake Foley and Gus Bleeker, lead detectives on the case, receive an anonymous tip that the killer is holed up in an East L.A. apartment.

They rush to the scene, but it's a trap.

Bleeker dies on the spot from multiple gunshot wounds; Foley takes three bullets to the chest and a fourth to the head. Miraculously, he survives the shooting. But his doctors decide there is too great a risk involved in attempting to remove the fourth bullet. It has to stay where it is, lodged deep in the temporal lobe of his brain.

During the long convalescence that follows, Foley comes to realize he has acquired an amazing new ability - what psychologists call precognition.

When the Goddess Slayer announces his intention to make Foley's daughter one of his victims, it becomes apparent the only hope of avenging his partner's death and saving his daughter's life is to put his new talent to use.

His health is uncertain but his plan might work ... if the bullet doesn't shift and kill him first.
