Soul Murder

An
exciting new thriller, introducing Francesco Patrese, FBI expert on
religious crime, for fans of Richard Montanari and ‘Messiah’.

When
Pittsburgh homicide detective, Franco Patrese, and his partner Mark
Beradino are called to a domestic dispute at the lawless Homewood estate
events quickly spiral out of control. With two dead, Patrese believes
he's got his killer - but things aren’t always as simple as they seem.

On
the other side of town, the charred body of Michael Redwine, a renowned
brain surgeon, is found in one of the city's most luxurious apartment
blocks. Then Father Kohler, a Catholic bishop, is set alight in the
confessional at his Cathedral. But they are just the first in a series
of increasingly shocking murders.

Patrese's investigation uncovers
high-class prostitution, medical scams and religious obsession, but
what Patrese doesn't realise is how close to the case he really is - and
how it will take a terrible betrayal to uncover the truth.
