A Detective Elouise Norton Novel

By: Rachel Howzell Hall

Narrated by: Je Nie Fleming

"A fresh voice in crime fiction. Fast, funny, heartbreaking and wise...Elouise Norton is the best new character you'll meet this year." (Lee Child)

Los Angeles Homicide Detective Elouise Norton encounters her toughest case yet in City of Saviors, the fourth installment in the critically acclaimed mystery series from author Rachel Howzell Hall.   

After a long Labor Day weekend, 73-year-old Eugene Washington is found dead in his Leimert Park home. At first blush, his death seems unremarkable- heat wave combined with food poisoning from a holiday barbecue. But something in the way Washington died doesn’t make sense. LAPD Homicide Detective Elouise "Lou" Norton is called to investigate the death and learns that the only family Washington had was the 6,000-member congregation of Blessed Mission Ministries, led by Bishop Solomon Tate.   

But something wicked is lurking among the congregants of this church.  

Lou’s partner, Detective Colin Taggert, thinks her focus on the congregation comes from her distrust of organized religion. But Lou is convinced that the murderer is sitting in one of those red velvet pews - and that Bishop Tate may be protecting the wolf in the flock. Lou must force the truth into the light and confront her own demons in order to save another soul before it’s too late.

Good but not as Great as her others

The PSD thing overshadowed the story. That's why I lowered the score. Did NOT "guess who don it" OR who snitched on Lou.

Thriller from start to finish

Who knew a southern dessert favorite would unravel such mayhem. Just when you think you knew the ending the twist begins.

Good

I love Lou and all the gang!! RHH is great and keeps my attention!! There are a few more of her books I have to read.....so go book shopping!!!

Great mystery! I love Detective Eloise Norton!

This book is well written and the main character is well developed. The plot wilp keep you guessing until the last minute. I'm sad this is the last book of the series.

Good read

I enjoyed the build up. It was an enjoyable read. I love this author and will continue to support her works.
