Another Saturday to Kill

A compelling mix of reality and fantasy, the action of ANOTHER SATURDAY TO KILL takes place in a graduate school complex, in local bars, an "art" theatre, and a hillside shrine of the Virgin Mary overlooking the decaying mills of Pittsburgh's South Side. The novel covers the intricacies and disintegration in the history and the current state of the mind of Adrian O'Bannion, a graduate student in English Literature, as he struggles to find release on a Saturday on which he has cut all classes because of the competitive stress he constantly finds himself under. Late in the day, when the mix finally overwhelms him, he compulsively kills a female undergraduate of one of the classes he teaches. And there is the clear and proveable inference in the EPILOGUE -- TWO WEEKS LATER of ANOTHER SATURDAY TO KILL that this is not the first time such an unhappy event in the life of the hero has taken place. ANOTHER SATURDAY TO KILL takes a serious look into the mind of a serial killer.
