When Devin and Samara Dakhota start searching, they uncover a twisted side of humanity rarely disclosed to the public. In The Creed (now available through 1stBooks), author Linda Kilgren offers a riveting suspense novel centered around a rash of strange murders.
They uncover strange, ritualistic murders by satanic religious fanatics and become entangled in their treachery while trying to find the little boy. Their hearts eventually become ensnared, as well.
