OF ALL THE CREATURES IN THE WORLD, ONLY HUMANS HAVE THE CAPACITY FOR
EVIL…
Small animals – a rat, a rabbit, a squirrel – have been turning up
throughout Charlotte, North Carolina, mutilated and displayed in the
same bizarre manner. But one day, as Tempe is relaxing at home
alongside her aimless, moody great-niece Ruthie, she’s diverted by a
disturbing call. Now, it seems, the perp is upping the ante. This find
is larger. Could the remains be human?
Tempe visits the scene and discovers that the victim is a dog.
Someone’s pet. As someone who has always found animal cruelty deeply
abhorrent, she vows to help apprehend the person responsible for the
killings. With her layered knowledge of animal behaviour, Ruthie
becomes a valuable ally in the hunt for answers, as does semi-retired
homicide detective Erskine ‘Skinny’ Slidell, who is equally outraged
and committed.
Needing a better understanding of possible motives, Tempe and Skinny
seek input from a forensic psychologist, who has no definitive answer
but offers several possibilities. The escalating pattern of aggression
suggests even more macabre discoveries – and that the perp’s focus may
soon shift to humans.
And then it happens. A woman is found disfigured and posed in a manner
that mimics the earlier killings. As Tempe and Slidell follow the
horrifying clues to a shocking conclusion, they find themselves force
to confront an increasingly terrifying question.
What is pure evil?
