β¦ Synopsis
Called to a crime scene when a terrified woman raises the alarm on a horrifying murder, Detective Hosea Elgin finds the victimβs body has been dismembered with professional precision.
Very quickly, two small-time drug dealers are identified as the probable assailants and a manhunt is launched to bring them into custody.
With the two suspects on the run, the consequences of their actions continue to spiral out of control and it becomes clear that while one of them is focused on survival, the other wants only revenge.
As the net begins to tighten on the fugitives, Detective Elgin finds that the case begins to move very close to home and what began as just another murder investigation is developing into something much more personal.
The decisions he makes and the actions he takes may well solve the case and bring the criminals to justice, but in the process he might just tear his family and his church to pieces.
With The Butcherβs Prayer, Anthony Neil Smith shows once again heβs a writer at the very top of his game. This immersive piece of Southern Gothic Noir certainly isnβt for the faint-hearted but with the skill and nuance weβve come to expect from Smith he dazzles with writing that is precise, measured and never gratuitous...M.F
