A bizarre murder in the suburbs of Dublin leads a Garda Síochána detective into a perplexing investigation in this gritty crime novel.
When Detective Garda Sergeant Mike West and his partner answer an emergency call from St. Monica’s church, they discover a dead body suspended from the beams in front of the altar. The victim is identified as Ian Moore, a man recently released from prison after serving time for rape.
Revenge seems like the obvious motive for Moore’s murder, but as the list of suspects grows, West begins to wonder if there’s something deeper going on. Perhaps the killer believes this is God’s work. With pressure from both the church and his boss to get the case solved quickly, West and his team have their work cut out for them.
