The Sculptor's Prayer

"When art becomes murder, the only witness is already a target."

When a string of bodies begins appearing across the city-embalmed, delicately painted, and posed in reverent prayer-Detective Alex Bishop knows he's facing more than just a killer. These aren't just murders. They're masterpieces.

Cold, clever, and haunted by his past, Alex is the Violent Crimes Unit's best weapon-until a crucial eyewitness derails everything. Mia Crawford, sharp-tongued and fiercely guarded, walks into his investigation with a secret of her own. Alex mistakes her for a hooker. She mistakes him for just another arrogant cop. Sparks fly. Trust dies quickly.

But the Sculptor isn't done.

As the body count rises, so does the tension between Alex and Mia. Bound by a fragile alliance and chased by a killer obsessed with beauty in death, they must work together before the next victim is found. Because the Sculptor has a new project in mind-and Mia fits the mold.
