A Lucas Davenport thriller by internationally bestselling novelist John Sandford

In the mist and rain of a Minnesota spring, the body of a woman is found in a shallow grave. When the murder is connected with an erotic drawing of the victim, the police call on Lucas Davenport's expertise.

Then Davenport makes a grisly discovery - more drawings just like those of the first victim. Drawings that, no doubt, hint at more murder victims to come . . .
