Overview
The Robert Hunter Series Vol. 1-5 collects Chris Carter's first five LAPD thrillers in one brand new paperback set: The Crucifix Killer, The Executioner, The Night Stalker, The Death Sculptor, and One by One. Detective Robert Hunter and his partner Carlos Garcia face escalating, meticulously staged murders across Los Angeles, from a supposedly dead killer's returning signature to a horrifying web-broadcast execution. Fast-paced and forensically detailed, this set is ideal for readers who want to start the acclaimed series from book one and read straight through without a wait between installments.

About the Books
Chris Carter built his international reputation on tightly plotted, psychologically dark crime thrillers, and this five-book set captures the run that launched Detective Robert Hunter into the front rank of modern fictional investigators. The Crucifix Killer opens the series with a body bearing an impossible signature: the mark of a killer supposedly caught and executed two years earlier, forcing Hunter to question whether a copycat or the original monster is loose in Los Angeles. The Executioner raises the stakes inside a blood-soaked church, where a priest's murder and a cryptic numeral scrawled on his chest send Hunter chasing a killer who blurs ritual and revenge. The Night Stalker then turns toward a victim whose lips have been carefully sewn shut, a detail that unravels into a case of obsession and captivity. The Death Sculptor introduces a killer whose calling card is left beside a terminally ill victim, forcing Hunter to decode a motive built on cruelty disguised as mercy. One by One closes the set with a technology-driven nightmare, as Hunter watches a horror broadcast built specifically for him while LAPD and FBI resources race to trace an untraceable transmission. Together, the five novels trace Hunter's evolution as an investigator while keeping Carter's forensic detail, psychological insight, and relentless pacing consistent from the very first page to the last twist.
