San Diego homicide detective Holly Jennings is back in The Preference and she is hunting the most sadistic killer she's faced yet.

Do You Prefer Red or White?

It's a simple question... When couples from Las Vegas to Colorado Springs receive an e-mail with an offer to win a free trip to Napa Valley by simply stating their preference of either red or white wine, little do they know the killing spree their "preference" sets in motion.

He calls himself The Connoisseur...

He stalks and murders young, beautiful red headed or blonde women depending on "his clients" preference. The Connoisseur is methodical, sadistic and with a need to seek what he considers justice for himself.

Homicide detective Holly Jennings wants nothing more than to nail The Connoisseur. However, when his next victim doesn't fit his Modus Operandi, Holly has to consider the possibility of two killers, a copycat, or a hunter who may actually know how to outwit her. Ella Jennis is a brunette and from a wealthy winery family out of Temecula, Ca. When disturbing photos of Ella in captivity surface on the internet, Holly is certain that time is running out to save the latest preference.
