Two charred skeletons in the foothills pull Detective Peter Decker into the depraved underworld of snuff films.
The novel plunges LAPD Detective Sergeant Peter Decker into a harrowing case when two burnt bodies surface in the foothills. Kellerman tracks the detective from a quiet Deep Canyon yeshiva into the city’s darkest corners.
The Foothill Division squad room provides the base as dental records identify one victim as teenage runaway Lindsey Bates. The narrative pairs gritty police procedure with Decker’s uneasy courtship of Orthodox widow Rina Lazarus.
