4.0 out of 5 stars
The killer is who you least suspect. Not a bad book., June 18, 2006
At the beginning of the book, Marti, Abbey's best friend is being murdered. Marti is talking about what is happening to her, describing how whoever it is, is doing these heinous acts. And she knows she won't live to tell about it. The killer crucifies her, like Jesus on the cross.
Abby is Marti's best friend, in fact the two are almost in a lesbian relationship together. When Abby hears of Marti's death, she is shattered beyond belief. And yet, the Secret Service, suspects her as one of the killers.
Jeffrey, Abby's husband is rotten to the core. They are only together for the sake of property. Tommy Lawrence was obsessed with Marti many years ago, so he could as well be the killer. And then there is Sister Helen, of whom taught Marti and Abby years ago when they were in school together and going to become nuns themselves, which they did, but then they were expelled when breaking the rules. Sister Helen is very very angry, and wants no part of Abby now. Really she is mad because Marty had a child she gave up to a couple, the Ryan's, and never got over that. Sister Helen wanted that child as her own since Marti didn't want Justin. And when she gave Justin to the Ryan's instead, Sister still managed to keep track of the boy.
Justin gets kidnapped in the story and manages to escape. But it is a awhile until he gets back home. In the meantime, Abby forces Sister Helen to tell her where he is, and when she meets Justin, he fills her in on the fine details of what happened to himself before he escaped.
Abby tries to put two and two together, but still can't find answers. Then suddenly, she is held hostage in her home, and the killer has her in his arms. And who the demon is, is a big surprise.
