Not her best, but was O.K. ( )

The crimes in this book are particularly heinous, which makes an interesting backdrop to Peter's struggle with his faith (or perhaps, lack of it). I was a little surprised by the turn Peter and Rina's relationship takes. ( )

This is the second in the Decker/Lazarus series. Great series.

Back Cover Blurb:
While on a camping trip, Detective Peter Decker and his two young charges come across the charred remains of two teenage girls. Embroiled in a disturbing case, Decker's only unifying thread in a network of violence and corruption is the deaths of the two apparently very different young girls. ( )

Book description

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 038073267X, Mass Market Paperback)

Los Angeles Police Detective Peter Decker had grown very close to Rina's young sons, Sammy and Jake, as he had to their mother, and he looked forward to spending a day of his vacation camping with the boys. A nice reprieve from the grueling work of a homicide cop-until Sammy stumbles upon a gruesome sight...

Two human skeletons, charred beyond recognition, are identified by a forensic dentist as teenage girls--and for Decker, the father of a sixteen-year-old daughter, vacation time is over. Throwing himself professionally and emotionally into the murder case, he launches a very personal investigation: a quest that pulls him deep into the crack dens of Hollywood Boulevard and painfully close to the children of the streets and a nightmare world he must make his own.
