And Jordan is piling on the pressure thanks to a string of Marcy's cases going cold. She needs a win-and fast. Then heiress Audrina Dixon is brutally killed with only her fourteen-year-old twin sons as witnesses. But the boys, traumatized by what they have seen, seem to have developed a rare form of mutism.

As Marcy deepens her investigation, she begins to realize that Audrina's murder is just one part of a much bigger picture. Behind it, lies a horrifying web of mind control, depravity, and revenge . . . A web spun by a powerful enemy who is willing to do whatever it takes to stop her-permanently. Contains mature themes.

The City of Angels is in the hands of the devils. LAPD detective Marcy Kendrick and her partner, Angel Reyes, are called to investigate the brutal sex murder of an up-and-coming starlet. A calling card has been left at the crime scene. This was the work of a professional, Alejandro 'El Gato' Gómez, an infamous drug lord who has evaded LA police for over a decade. Gómez has a right-hand man, a mysterious assassin known as El Mariachi de los Muertos. The assassin, for reasons unknown, is on a murderous rampage across LA. The bodies are piling up. But why? As Marcy soon discovers, El Gato has secrets. But drug lords don't want their secrets to become public knowledge. Especially not these secrets . . . The race is on.

They seemed like ordinary housewives. Until the killing started. When a woman from an affluent LA neighborhood is brutally murdered, Detective Marcy Kendrick and her partner Angel Reyes are sent to investigate. And soon discover that the victim is no ordinary housewife. She is one of several wealthy women who are connected to organized shoplifting rings-they receive stolen goods from the gangs, then sell the merchandise through online "discount" stores. Now, someone is killing off these women in a series of terrifying home invasions. Who wants them dead? And why? Kendrick and Reyes must find a killer who shows no sign of stopping. But their only witness is in a coma and the body count is rising fast. It's a race against time. Can they stop the killer before it's too late? Or is yet another housewife about to meet a grisly end?

He's doing the holiest work-murder. When LAPD Homicide detective Marcy Kendrick and her partner Angel Reyes investigate the bizarre death of a drug dealer in an abandoned warehouse, they discover he was waterboarded-with baptismal water. It isn't long before the killer strikes again. This time the victim is a young woman. Her hands and feet were bound, she was decapitated, and her heart was cut out. Traces of baptismal water are found in her wounds. As the death toll continues to rise, it becomes clear the killer is on a religious mission. It's the kind of sensational case the press loves, and they make the most of it, stirring up a frenzy, dubbing the killer the Templar. With the investigation under intense public scrutiny, Marcy's boss demands a quick resolution. But that's easier said than done because there doesn't seem to be any connection between the victims. Marcy finds herself hunting a killer who thinks he's on the side of the angels, with no idea where he'll strike next. Can she stop the Templar before he kills again? Contains mature themes.
