Mortal Grace

Vince Cardozo, Book 3

Murder and religion collide in this compulsively readable police procedural by the bestselling author of Privileged Lives and Deadly Rich.

Suffer the children…

The first body is found in a hamper in the woods. Her feet were tied with a leather belt. There are traces of incense on her dismembered body, candle wax on her skin, and strange crumbs on her lips.

As more butchered adolescent corpses turn up - the victims of a serial killer whose signature is the communion wafer left in each one's mouth - the evidence leads NYPD lieutenant Vince Cardozo into the sacred and moneyed world of Manhattan's exclusive parishes. Desperate to find the monster who preys on vulnerable runaways, Cardozo uncovers a conspiracy that reaches to the city's highest levels of power.
