JIGSAW
Six years ago four men robbed a bank. Then a shootout left them dead, and 750 grand missing. Now Detectives Carella and Brown are finding pieces of a photograph, each piece tied to a name, each name tied to a murder, each murder tied to the bank robbery six years ago. The 87th Precinct cops know that the complete picture will lead them to the money. They just don't know how many people still have to die-before the last piece falls into place.

JIGSAW
Something is puzzling the 87th Precinct...
A puzzle, to be exact. What looks at first like a nice, neat little double homicide becomes much more peculiar when Detective Arthur Brown discovers the first odd-shaped piece of a photograph, clutched in a dead man's hand. It is only the first of seven clues to a suitcase of stolen cash - and a serial killer with an unpleasant sense of fun.
