Reaper

“Dear Violet... I am about to die.” Thus begins a series of letters to Palm Beach astrologist Violet Day, self-written epitaphs from elderly women later found brutally murdered. As the letters and the murders begin to make headlines, Violet’s daughter, Lorraine Day, contacts her old friend and former cop, Ken Blackburn. While a detective on the Dallas force, Blackburn developed an uncanny instinct for tracking down serial killers by predicting when they would strike again... until that meeting in an alley with one deranged man who had eluded him for months, a meeting that proved fatal to the killer and caused Blackburn’s suspension from the force.

So convinced are Lorraine Day and Ken Blackburn that they are dealing with a man who fits the serial killer profile that Ken makes a live appearance on a local talk show to announce he knows who the killer is... and then they wait, hoping against hope that the killer will falter and expose himself before he kills again – because this time his target is the Day family itself.
