Murder 42
Murder 42 was the title of the homemade video that shocked Scottsdale detectives and special agents of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. The killer on the video never reveals his face, and with few leads, the FBI doesn't believe they will ever find him.
The video falls into the lap of Special Agent Gio Adami, now an Assistant Special Agent in Charge in the prestigious Behavioral Science Unit, and he turns to the one person he knows can help him: Sarah King.
The video shocks Sarah to her core and leads her on a bloody quest to find the monster who made it, and to the one place she doesn't want to go: into her own mind.
With Murder 42, bestselling author Victor Methos creates a breathtaking thriller taking you from the art galleries of Los Angeles, to the seedy pornography dens of Arizona. Revealing aspects of our society most people know nothing about, he illuminates that place from which all evil stems: the human heart.

Victor Methos
Few writers of legal thrillers have lived the stories they tell as closely as Victor Methos. Born in Kabul and raised in the United States from the age of nine, he grew up with an outsider’s eye, watching, questioning, and writing. By ten, he was already crafting short stories in English, sensing that the written word could carry both truth and danger. That instinct would follow him into adulthood, shaping a career that straddled the courtroom and the page.
Before turning to fiction full time, Methos built his reputation in the legal world. He studied philosophy at the University of Utah, then shifted course to law school, where his fascination with justice became something far sharper. Over the next decade, he tried more than a hundred cases ranging from capital murder to high-stakes civil rights battles. Each trial demanded not just intellect but moral clarity, and many of those experiences left their imprint on his novels.
