Book description
It's a holy place - but a depraved killer has made it his playground.
When a troubled novice is found garrotted in St Marguerite's cathedral,
the first detectives called in are Bentz and Montoya. And Montoya knows
who she is - Sister Camille was once his brother's girlfriend. He even
knows the prime suspect: Father Frank O'Toole, rumoured to be the father
of Camille's unborn child. The deeper the investigation goes, the eerier
it gets. More nuns are dying, brutally slaughtered by someone who seems
to know their darkest secrets. Bentz is sure Father O'Toole is their
man. But arresting him is another matter. And there are other suspects,
too, including a ruthless murderer who is supposed to have died years
ago. Has the monstrous killer known as Father John returned to New
Orleans? Or is the truth even more twisted and terrifying?
'A fast moving thriller with plenty of twists and turns, and an easy
flowing style that readily catches the reader up in its thrall.'
