A Coin for Charon (A Marlower Gentry Thriller 1)

The media has dubbed him the Seraphim Killer, but Gabriel isn't murdering anyone―he's saving them. Gabriel believes the gods have called him to release The Chosen - those for whom life has become an unbearable torment. He feels their suffering: his hands burn, his skull thunders, his stomach clenches. Once they are free, he places gold coins over their eyes to pay Charon for passage into Paradise. Detective Marlowe Gentry has spent the past two years on the edge. The last serial killer he hunted murdered his wife before his eyes and left his young daughter a mute shell. Whenever she looks at him now, her dead eyes push him farther into a downward spiral of pain and regret. The Seraphim Killer is a surrogate for his revenge, a chance to forgive himself - or die trying. Two men obsessed. One desperate to please his gods, one searching for redemption, both destined for a collision with fate.
