The Devil of Light
Gae-Lynn Woods
A Cass Elliot Crime Novel
Publisher: Dead Head Press

When young Detective Cass Elliot responds to a report of domestic violence at the home of a prominent businessman, she finds him violently murdered in the barnyard with his battered wife unconscious near the tool that killed him. Still raw from her own unsolved attack six years ago, Cass is stunned when confronted with graphic photographs scattered across their kitchen floor, and she wonders if the wife might've had cause to kill her husband.

Cass and her partner Mitch Stone delve into a cunning world of blackmail and violence — and find a cult concealed for nearly a century beneath the genteel, small town façade of Arcadia in East Texas. Their investigation triggers a brutal response from powerful men who will protect their identities at any cost. They unleash a ruthless killer whose actions create a media frenzy and destroy the fabric of trust within the police department.

Cass and Mitch circle closer to the cult's few members, following a slim lead into a night lit by fire. A night that begins with a blood ritual and ends with Cass holding a man's life — or death — in her hands and struggling to walk the fine line between vengeance and justice.
