Secret Place

Book Four of the Pulaski SeriesAn autistic young man and a former prostitute, both with their own troubled histories, are struggling for a better way of life. Finding no help in their fundamentalist church, they turn to Satanism, little knowing it will end in their deaths. A year after their disappearance in the small community of Spirit Lake, Idaho, the parents of the young man turn to Northwest Investigations for help in finding what happened to their son, something the authorities have been unable to do. Emil and Leela, now assisted by their adopted daughter, the former Annette Van Zandt, take on the case but it proves to be heavy going due to a lack of clues, the same thing that frustrated the Kootenai County Sheriff s Office. Annie, the newest member of Northwest Investigations, finds the doorway leading to the fate of the missing couple. From there, it is a long and dangerous chase to run down the chief culprit, a psychopathic killer who seems to be truly touched by the Devil himself.
