A Cruel Season for Dying
by Harker Moore (9780446613736)

Bodies like desecrated fallen angels are discovered posed nude except for the white wings that jut from slits cut into their shoulders. Understanding the shocking fantasy underlying these ritual executions is the key to catching the killer. When an eight-year-old girl becomes the monster's next victim, renowned NYPD homicide detective Lt. James Sakura must use all of his skills and every instinct he has to see into the heart of a murderer who believes he is waging a war against God. As time runs out, and the killer's targets become those closest to Sakura, he must risk everything to face this madman alone.
