A small Georgia town erupts in panic when a young college professor is found brutally mutilated in the local diner. But it's only when town pediatrician and coroner Sara Linton does the autopsy that the full extent of the killer's twisted work becomes clear.Sara's ex-husband, police chief Jeffrey Tolliver, leads the investigation -- a trail of terror that grows increasingly macabre when another local woman is found crucified a few days later. But he's got more than a sadistic serial killer on his hands, for the county's sole female detective, Lena Adams -- the first victim's sister -- wants to serve her own justice. But it is Sara who holds the key to finding the killer. A secret from her past could unmask the brilliantly malevolent psychopath .. or mean her death.

I can't remember the last time I stayed up until 4am reading a book!
My god, what ana amazing story and characters.
There was a point at about half way through that I had to put the book down for a couple of minutes to digest what was happening because I did not expect that at all.
I start suspecting who the killer was around 60% of the way through, so I was a bit disappointed when I found out I was right. I've read way too crime and detective novels, and see waaaaay too many tv shows to not have picked the killer based on the character and the part they played. But in saying that, when the killer was revealed it didn't make it any less interesting.
10/10 for sure and I've already downloaded the second book in the series to my kindle.
