Synopsis
In a small Georgia town, a young college professor is found brutally mutilated in the local diner, and panic spreads through the streets. Sara Linton, the town pediatrician who is also the coroner, performs the autopsy. Only then does the full extent of the killer's work become clear.
Sara's ex-husband, Jeffrey Tolliver, is the police chief and leads the investigation. A few days after the first death, another local woman is found crucified, and the crimes grow more macabre. Jeffrey is hunting a sadistic serial killer.
He also has trouble inside his own department. Lena Adams, the county's only female detective, is the first victim's sister, and she wants to deliver justice in her own way. Her grief and anger put the case at risk as the pressure on the force builds.
Sara may be the person who holds the key. Something in her past could expose the psychopath behind the killings, or it could get her killed. This is a dark crime thriller with a forensic edge, set in a town where the investigators know the victims and one another.
