Velocity (2007)
“Your suicide: soon thereafter.
Billy Wiles consulted his wristwatch. A few minutes past noon, Wednesday.
If the freak meant what he said, this performance, or whatever it was, would conclude in thirty-six hours. Hell was eternal, but any hell on earth must be by definition finite.
The reference to a “last” killing did not necessarily mean that only one more murder lay ahead. In the past day and a half, the freak had killed three, and in the day and a half ahead, he might be no less murderous.
C...ruelty, violence, death. Movement, velocity, impact. Flesh, blood, bone.
Of those nine words in the second document, one struck Billy as more pertinent than the others. Velocity.
The movement had begun when the first note had been left under the windshield wiper on the Explorer. The impact would come with the last killing, the one meant to make him consider suicide.
Meanwhile, at a steadily accelerating pace, new challenges were being thrown at Billy, keeping him off balance. The word velocity seemed to promise him that the longest plunges of this roller coaster were still ahead.MoreLess
