Product Description
Ancient church rituals meet cutting- edge crime solving in the latest novel in the #1 New York Timesbestselling series thats Law & Order: SVUin the future (Entertainment Weekly).
In the year 2060, sophisticated investigative tools can help catch a killer. But there are some questions even the most advanced technologies cannot answer.
Ridley Pearson has praised J. D. Robbs suspense as taut and nerve-jangling. Her latest thriller sets a new standard for suspense, as the priest at a Catholic funeral mass brings the chalice to his lipsand falls over dead.
When Detective Lieutenant Eve Dallas confirms that the consecrated wine contained potassium cyanide, shes determined to solve the murder of Father Miguel Flores, despite her discomfort with her surroundings. Its not the bodegas and pawnshops of East Harlem that bother her, though the neighborhood is a long way from the stone mansion she shares with her billionaire husband, Roarke. Its all that holiness flying around at St. Christobals that makes her uneasy.
A search of the victims sparsely furnished room reveals little except for a carefully hidden religious medal with a mysterious inscription, and a couple of underlined Bible passages. The autopsy reveals more: faint scars of knife wounds, a removed tattooand evidence of plastic surgery, suggesting that Father Flores may not have been the man his parishioners had thought. Now, as Eve pieces together clues that hint at gang connections and a deeply personal act of revenge, she believes shes making progress on the case. Until a second murderin front of an even larger crowd of worshippersknocks the whole investigation sideways. And Eve is left to figure out who committed these unholy actsand why.
