Angel of Death

About the Book

A serial killer is terrorizing New York City in Angel of Death which can best be described as NYPD Blue meets Hannibal Lector.

Detective Bill Kelly is in charge of this good-news, bad-news case. The bad news is that the killer is slashing his victim’s throats and decorating their mutilated bodies with the Colombian necktie, where the tongues of the victims are shoved down their gullets and pushed through the gaping hole in their throats. The good news is that the victims have all been drug dealers, and John Q. Public is in absolutely no danger of becoming the killer’s next victim.

Detective Kelly’s daughter is a drug addict, and he’s torn between doing his job as a New York City cop, and the realization that dead drug dealers might not be such a bad thing after all.
