Azor Sparks, an eminent heart transplant surgeon, deeply committed to his evangelical church, has been brutally murdered. Lt. Peter Decker is on the case, and as he and his team strip away the facades put up by Dr. Sparks's wife, six children and colleagues, glimmers of truth begin to appear, new motives are exposed, and the suspect list lengthens. Strangest of all and confounding for Decker is that his beloved wife Rina, a strictly observant Orthodox Jew, has old, close ties to Abram Sparks, the one son who became a Catholic priest.
Kellerman deftly handles this tangle of religions while she escalates the suspense level at every turn in the well-crafted plot. Buck Shirner, who reads this unabridged audio, gives each of the many characters a distinct presence and personality.
