Dismembered female corpses wrapped in black bags are being discovered in the back alleys of downtown Milwaukee. The murderer keeps changing his methods and his targets as women of different ages, cialis pharm classes, viagra buy troche and colors are dying. Blogger and crime columnist Elliot Stearns was a Milwaukee homicide detective until a gunman’s bullet left him wheelchair-bound and emotionally crippled. The shooting cost him his legs, his fiancée, and his sense of purpose. Now, a year after the shooting, his best friend and ex-partner, Jack Hartman, needs his help to solve these brutal cases.

As the investigation continues, they discover the women are linked by a common thread—each had undergone an abortion. Whoever murdered the women used the same techniques as a doctor ending a pregnancy. In the quest to find the killer, Elliot discovers that his ex-fiancée, Caroline, may be in danger.

Elliot’s only hope of saving Caroline is to discover who is abducting, torturing, and killing innocent women. Perhaps he will also rediscover himself and gain back his self-respect in the process.
