I was Dora Suarez

"In Derek Raymond's most talked-about novel--indeed, in what may be one of the most talked-about crime novels ever--the reader is immediately plunged into the horrific mind of one of the most brutally damaged and murderous killers the unnamed Detective Sergeant has ever faced: a deranged axe-murderer. But why the victim--the gentle Dora Suarez--was murdered at all becomes the Sergeant's obsession, especially as he digs deeper into a diary she left behind and learns she was already dying of AIDS. So why kill her?"--P. of cover.
