Killer Magic: Book Four of the Sidney Becker Mysteries

When Chief Sidney Becker arrives at a crime scene on the lakeshore of her small town, she’s confronted with one of the most spine chilling murders she’s ever witnessed. The victim was drained of blood, yet the crime scene is immaculate. The man’s nude body is inscribed with mysterious symbols, and strange tokens are buried nearby in the sand.

A highly skilled detective, Sidney won’t rest until the killer is in custody. The investigation takes her into the world of magical practices and beliefs; her suspects include witches, illusionists, psychics, and magicians. Their familiarity with the symbols from the crime scene send a ripple of fear through the occult community. Many are convinced that a demonic warlock is on the loose.

Sidney has little patience for beliefs in magic spells and demons. She’s convinced the killer is a lone psychopath with a personal vendetta. But she can’t deny that something sinister and eerie is afoot in Linnly County—something coiled and venomous and evil, and it’s waiting to strike again.
