There
is a serial killer on the loose in New Orleans. Someone
is branding, stabbing and strangling young girls. Their
mutilated bodies are being found in the depths of the Mississippi
River.
Beleaguered Detective Lewis Kline and his colleagues believe
the occult may be involved, but they have no leads. And the
killer shows no sign of slowing down.
Then Sela, a troubled young woman, finds a stranger's cell
phone in a dark Bourbon Street bar. When it rings, she answers
it. On the other end is Chloe Applegate. The serial killer's
most recent victim.
So begins Sela's journey into a nightmare from which she
cannot awaken, a descent into madness out of which she cannot
climb... as she finds herself the target of an almost incomprehensible
evil.
