“Matheson’s voice is exciting, urgent… and, now more than ever, vital.”—A.J. Finn, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Woman in the Window
Detective Anjelica Henley confronts a series of ritualistic murders in this heart-pounding thriller about race, power and the corrupt institutions that threaten us
When Detective Anjelica Henley is called to investigate the murder of a popular preacher in his own church, she discovers a second victim, tortured and tied to a bed in an upstairs room. He is alive, but barely, and his body shows signs of a dark religious ritual.
With a revolving list of suspects and the media spotlight firmly on her, Henley is left with more questions than answers as she attempts to untangle both crimes. But when another body appears, the case takes on a new urgency. Unless she can apprehend the killer, the next victim may just be Henley herself.
Both fans of The Jigsaw Man and listeners coming to Matheson's work for the first time will get swept away in this heart-pounding thriller. Drawing on her experiences as a criminal attorney, Nadine Matheson deftly explores issues of race, class and justice through an action-packed story that will hold you captive until the last terrifying minute.

Second, the book is entirely too long... I listened to it on 1.2 speed to hurry up reaching the end. I nearly stopped listening several times, but instead I just skipped ahead in some of the more painful parts. Readers should use these tips to reach the plot resolution, if you can stand it long enough to reach the end.
Finally, the narrator is TERRIBLE. I recall reviews from the first book in this series where people complained about the narrator. I didn't find her as bad in the first book, but this one is a hot mess! Her over-reading and voice inflections are completely distracting. Although I like her actual voice, the reading of this book was truly awful! This also contributed to me skipping ahead during some of the more annoying sections. I cut her some slack in the first book, but this time I agree with the negative feedback on this narrator. She makes it extremely difficult to listen to this book.
As much as I like the actual storyline and characters, there is just too much wrong with this book for me to recommend it. I was so happy to reach the end and was not at all interested in the cliff-hanger at the end, which I suppose is to make the reader curious about the next installment. Most readers are not idiots and clearly caught all of the pregnancy hints that were dropped like bricks in almost every chapter. Honestly, I don't care if she's preggers or not. I won't be back for the installment.
Two stars overall
