Overview

The people of this city are being terrorized. The crimes have no motives. The killers have only one explanation...

Devout Catholic detective Peter Nicholas investigates a series of murders around New York City, perpetrated by men who claim that God told them to do it. After the police department denies any religious underpinnings to the murders and suspends him, Nicholas begins to connect the murders to a messianic cult figure in town.
