Angel in Blood · A Chris Jeffries Mystery (Chris Jeffries Mysteries)

Detectives Christina Jeffries and Adam Hunt are called to the scene of a gruesome murder. A woman has been killed in her own home, her throat slashed. The body has been laid out on its back, with her hands folded in prayer and a cross carved in the skin on her chest. The way the arterial blood spray arcs up behind the victim's shoulders give the detectives the impression of a bloody angel. Chris and Adam are deep into the investigation when another woman is killed in the same way. Were these women killed for a reason, or is there a predator on the streets of Houston targeting women?
