The Cannibals Muse

Detective Rodger Brown used to be trusted: until one accusation shattered his reputation and turned the entire department against him. Now he's stuck chasing a cannibalistic killer who's always three steps ahead, carving signatures into plumbing systems and leaving victims in pieces no one wants to assemble.

With the case collapsing under pressure and every officer quietly rooting for his failure, Brown's forced to work alongside Carlson, a forensic expert who'd rather swallow glass than take his calls. But when two new interns arrive on the scene, one of them, bright-eyed, stubbornly hopeful George, seems unnervingly eager to work with the department's most hated detective.

As blood pools in pipes and clues refuse to line up, Brown and George begin uncovering patterns everyone else missed. But the closer they get to the truth, the more the cannibal's shadow twists around them... and the more Brown realises that in a department full of enemies, the wrong ally might be just as dangerous as the killer himself.

Some cases ruin careers.
This one might devour more than that.
