Outstanding book! Suspense, realistic attempted portrayal of an alternate religion in everyday terms with believable people.
In 1484, Pope Innocent VIII isued a papal bull--a decree giving the endorsement of the church to the inquisitors of the day who hunted, tortured, tried and ultimately murdered those accused of heresy--especially the practice of Witchcraft. Modern day Witches refer to this dark period of history as THE BURNING TIMES.
Rowna Gant returns to face a nightmare long thought to be a distant memory. A killer armed with gross misrepresinterpretations of the Holy Bible and a 15th century Witch Hunting Manual known as the Hammer of Witches has resurrected the Inquisition, and the members of the St. Louis Pagan community are his prey.
With the unspeakable horrors of THE BURNING TIMES being played out across the metropolitan area, Rowan is again enlisted by Homocide Detective Benjamin Storm and the Major Case Squad to help solve the crimes--all the while knowing full well that his religion makes him the next potential target.
