The chilling sequel to Primal Fear.
Lawyer, Martin Vail, has never lost a case - now he must catch a psychotic killer, or he'll lose his life.
When Linda Balfour, a young mother, is found butchered in small-town southern Illinois, a coded inscription stamped in blood on the back of her head brands her mutilated body.
For Chief Prosecutor Martin Vail, the bloody insignia drags up memories he'd like to forget - memories of Bishop Rushman, slashed and dismembered ten years ago by an alter boy, Aaron Stampler.
But if Stampler's locked away, he can't have murdered Linda. With his career - and his life - on the line, Vail needs some answers fast before the killer signs someone else's life away.
