A divorced family councilor relocates to Key West to investigate her sisterโs disappearance in this thriller by a New York Timesโbestselling author.
โIโm in trouble, Liz. Iโve uncovered something . . . Theyโre watching . . .โ
That panicked message on her answering machine is the last time Liz Ames hears from her sister Rachel, pastor of Paradise Christian Church in Key West, Florida.
Compelled to uncover the truth about her sisterโs disappearance, she heads to Key West. Within hours of her arrival a successful banker jumps to his death. Then a teenage girl whom Rachel was counseling is found brutally murdered. The ritualistic style of the killing is hauntingly similar to that used by the notorious โNew Testamentโ serial killerโnow on death row.
Could the teenโs murder be related to Rachelโs disappearance? Is a copycat killer at work? And why do the police refuse to help?
For answers, Liz turns to Rick Wells, a former Miami cop who worked the fringes of the โNew Testamentโ investigation. Together they peel away layers of deception to reveal a terrifying adversaryโand the unspeakable evil at the heart of this island paradise.
