Prayers for the Dead (Peter Decker & Rina Lazarus Novels)

by Faye Kellerman

Prayers for the Dead (Peter Decker & Rina Lazarus Novels) Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

The brutal murder of Dr. Azor Sparks in an alley behind a restaurant is greeted with public outrage and a demand for swift, sure justice. But the investigation into the well-known surgeon's death is raising too many questions and providing too few answers for homicide detective Lieutenant Peter Decker.

Why, for example, would the family of a man so beloved respond to his slaying with more surprise than grief? And what linked a celebrated doctor with strict fundamentalist beliefs to a gang of outlaw bikers? But the most unsettling connection of all is the one that ties the tormented Sparks family to Peter Decker's own — and the secrets shared by a renegade Catholic priest...and Decker's wife, Rina Lazarus.

Synopsis:

The New York times bestselling author's ninth entry in her acclaimed Peter Decker/Rina Lazarus series.

The brutal murder of a prominent surgeon is greeted with public outrage and a demand for swift justice. But the investigation into the good doctor's death raises too many questions and provides too few answers for homicide detective Lieutenant Peter Decker. Why does the dead man's family respond to his slaying with more surprise than grief? And what linked the strict fundamentalist physician to a dangerous group of outlaw bikers?
