| Death Row: The Hunter begins where The Fugitive left off. Dr. Nellie Kan, the scientist, has slipped her bonds from Kerick, the escaped inmate, and is resuming her quest for the illusive serum that will save mankind from an infection that turns him into a cannibalistic beast with serrated teeth and claws that slice and dice without remorse. Nellie is roaming through the jungle headed for a network of underground caves where she believes the journal of Margaret Riley has directed her to find the Xilbalba or the entrance to the Underworld. Kerick is not about to let his chosen one escape unchallenged and follows Nellie's tracks, vowing to find her and make her sorry she ever ran from him. He will master her if it's the last thing he ever does! Nellie has found the caves but three cave dwellers have also found her. With women being in short supply all over the planet, the three, uneducated buffoons, cannot believe their luck in capturing a female and they quickly subdue Nellie, preparing to take her as their own chattel. And so the books ends with a startling discovery that changes everything and the reader must wait for the next installment to satisfy their curiosity and hunger on what will happen next. Death Row: The Hunter revisits earth in the future, giving a stark outlook for mankind and the role of women in society. Through genetic manipulation man has doomed his race to either extinction or evolution at its worse. Chilling in its context, nonetheless this installment is entertaining and provocative. The sex is sensual and powerful, both raw and compelling as Ms. Black takes readers on another ride through sexual fantasia.
