Publisher's Synopsis
Evelyn Barrett has a new job, a new baby, and a new life. Nearly crushed by the horrific abduction and murder of her daughter (book 1, Unholy Hunger), Evelyn is moving on as best she can. No longer allowed to practice law, she is recruited by one of the detectives from her daughter's case to become a police consultant. Her inaugural case becomes a baptism of fire as she joins the hunt for a chillingly methodical and sadistic serial rapist and murderer. Her revulsion and anger fuels a passion for justice - and then it becomes personal. Her friend and law school roommate, Jen, becomes a victim. Filled with chilling tension Hands of Darkness, like its prequel, explores the emotional and spiritual consequences for all involved when justice and compassion collide head-on with the darkest examples of human depravity.
