The Blood of the Wicked

Dr. Edwin Meekes is a beloved veterinarian in quiet Seaview, New Jersey-gentle, dependable and quietly devoted to the animals he treats. But when the justice system fails to punish those who abuse or neglect innocent pets, Edwin takes matters into his own hands. His methods are precise. Poetic. Final. Now, with a missing persons case heating up and a cold-eyed detective closing in, Edwin's carefully constructed life begins to unravel. As suspicion grows, so does the moral tension-for his wife Lisa, who knows more than she admits, and for Detective Harvey Gristle, who must decide whether to uphold the law or take matters into his own hands. Taut, emotional, and morally charged, The Blood of the Wicked is a literary thriller that asks how far we'll go to protect the voiceless-and what we become when we do.
