In San Francisco's dark underbelly, someone is hunting sexual predators with righteous fury. The victims - all connected to the city's underground sex trade - are found mutilated, their deaths staged like medieval punishments.
For Homicide Inspector Clara Donner, the case hits close to home. As a former vice cop, she knows these streets and the monsters who prey on the vulnerable. But this killer is different - methodical, mission-driven, leaving messages that speak of divine justice and salvation.
As the body count rises, Donner must confront difficult questions about vengeance and redemption. The victims may have been predators themselves, but their brutal executions force her to examine her own beliefs about justice. In a case where the line between right and wrong grows increasingly blurred, Donner races to stop a killer before they can claim their next target.
A gritty police procedural that explores the shadow world of San Francisco's seediest streets, LOVE OF A PREACHER MAN is a dark meditation on faith, redemption, and the true meaning of justice.
