Even though I did see it coming a long way out. But Carr plays fair all the way through. And I love Patrick Butler. Am going to head out right now and find Patrick Butler for the Defense (the next in the series). (

Book description

A terrifying cult of devil-worshipers makes murder part of its evil ritual. An arrogant lawyer cynically defends a woman he's sure is guilty and finds himself helpless to clear one he knows is innocent. Here is a chilling story of horror and brutality told in the heavy atmosphere of marihuana-filled chapels of the Devil.
