ebook

Detectives Canby and Underwood hunt down a serial killer in this "heady mix of history, sizzle, punch, and danger" (Steve Berry, New York Times best-selling author of The Patriot Threat).

Disgraced former detective and Civil War veteran Thomas Canby partners with Atlanta's first African American police officer, Cyrus Underwood, to track down a serial murderer who seems to be targeting the city's wealthiest black entrepreneurs. Even after the killer is revealed, his astonishing ability to elude capture raises the question: is there such a thing as supernatural evil at loose in the world? Matthew Guinn draws readers into a vortex of tense, atmospheric storytelling, confronting the fears of both old South and new, compelling the reader through a breathless, disturbing finale.

A Los Angeles Public Library Best Book of the Year and a Finalist for the Pat Conroy Southern Book Prize.
