Live Bait - P.J. Tracy ... wife, Lily, it's a tragedy, but it shouldn't have been a shock - old people die. But when she finds a bullet hole in his skull, the blood washed away by heavy rain, sadness turns to fear. It looks like an execution Soon a whole city is fearful as new victims are found, killed with the same cold precision. All elderly. All apparently blameless.

One was a much loved and well-known member of the community with his own garden nursery and practically a saint status among the neighbourhood and the other a loner, who nobody really knew.
