What if the metro Atlanta area is suddenly dealing with the probability that another serial murderer is killing children; this time preadolescent females at Stone Mountain Park, a large natural state park in the middle of the metro area? What if a Chief of Detectives and his forensic psychiatrist friend are charged with finding this fiend? What if the killer is a priest who has a sexual preference to young girls?
This 81,100 word story follows exactly how law enforcement works to solve just such a case. The story begins with the discovery of a young female found in Stone Mountain Lake. Soon after, two early adolescent friends disappear, during a laser show while visiting the park. Then another young female is found on the golf course at the park. Chief of Detectives Theo Reed and his forensic psychiatrist work to find the killer. Detective Reed runs a task force and Aiden OBrian, M.D. develops the profile which will direct the task force. While investigating both men have their own inner conflicts with which they must deal.
The killer, an Episcopal priest is a youth minister and conducts the funeral for two of the victims. He is a tortured soul with enough anger and baggage to fill an entire mail train.
To interrupt the investigation a copycat killer shows up and must be dealt with.
Knowing the investigators are getting close the killer leaves, but sets up his departure to throw off the police by going to the Atlanta airport. He doubles back and takes AMTRAC instead. OBrian realizes this and convinces Reed to change his plans for an airport arrest. The two men take a helicopter to board the train in another town, getting on the train unseen. What follows is an exciting chase involving hostages and a big chance the killer will escape. If he gets off the train they will be searching scrub pines and palmetto plants making it impossible to locate the killer Does he get away? You need to read the ending.
