His supervising officer has him on probation and he’s determined to prove he’s cleaned up his act. But his return to the department may be enough to drive him back to the lure of heroin when he sees the crime scene of a child’s grisly murder. On the search for clues, he starts to suspect the young victim’s death is only a small piece of a bloody conspiracy steeped in ritual. Before long, he finds himself swept into the strange world of a religious cult. Between the zealous believers and closely guarded secrets, his best chance at solving the case may come from a single word uttered by an autistic boy. With his colleagues turned against him, can Rogan solve the puzzle and catch a child-killer before he claims his next victim?
