The investigation takes a supernatural turn when she discovers that the killer sacrifices people to an ancient deity to have his wish granted as a reward.THE SCULPTOR mixes a crime suspense premise with mystical elements, serving an easy-to-follow plot as each clue leads to Kelly investigating a new lead, allowing the story to unfold in a fluid manner.Kelly is a departure from typical female protagonists; she substitutes likability with intrigue, something usually reserved for male heroes. She is smart, confident and dedicated to her work, but also a little brash and emotionally stunted. She is an antihero, and women typically aren't portrayed as such.
