Publisher's Summary:
In the next installment of this "compelling, passionate, and gritty" (Daily Mail, London) suspense series, police captain Carmine Delmonico is on the trail of not one but two killers.
It's August 1969 in the sleepy college town of Holloman,Connecticut, and police Captain Carmine Delmonico is away on vacation. Back at home, first one, then two anonymous male corpses turn up - emaciated and emasculated. After connecting the victims to four other bodies, Sergeant Delia Carstairs and Lieutenant Abe Goldberg realize that Holloman has a psychopathic killer on the loose. Luckily, Carmine decides to come back from vacation early.
Carmine's team begins to circle a trio of eccentrics, who readily admit to knowing all the victims, but their stories keep changing. They share family ties, painful memories, and a dark past. One of them is a new friend of Sergeant Carstairs, as is the respected head of the mental hospital, who has been doing groundbreaking work rehabilitating one very difficult patient who is now her trusted assistant. When another vicious murder rocks Holloman, Carmine faces the revelation that two killers are at large with completely different modus operandi, even as he barely escapes being next in the body count. Suddenly, the summer isn't so sleepy.
A riveting mystery series by an author of astounding range and skill, Colleen McCullough's Carmine Delmonico books take you back to an age of classic police work, before DNA analysis and computers. Sins of the Flesh is her finest work yet, pitting her beloved hero against every cop's nightmare scenario in a plot that turns on the sort of science that McCullough herself knows so well.
Members Reviews:
Not worth the time spent reading it.
Perhaps it's because I have no history with these apparently well loved characters, but I didn't connect with this book. It wasn't particularly suspenseful nor did it have an intelligent ending. Speaking from a place of some experience (I have plenty of her books) I find that McCullough tends to be a bit hit and miss. This one I think she must have phoned in.
Sins of the Flesh by Colleen McCulloch
Colleen McCulloch always manages to churn out an amazing read and although I thought this book started out a bit slowly it soon gathered momentum to become an absolute page turner. Carmine Delmonico always gets his man or woman as the case may be.
A Phychiatrist/Neurosurgeon has become obsessed with a psychotic criminal whom she believed she has cured after many operations - obsessed with him or her own prowess?
Seven women have disappeared, believed murdered, leaving only a photograph of themselves. Where have they gone?
You'll love this book if you like mystery and action.
Don't Ever Miss a McCullough Book!
McCullough has written anything I haven't liked and respected for it's characters and story. Her Carmine Delmonico detective series rates in my top ten best of any of that genre I've read. Her writing has never devolved into a rehash of the same ole' thing and she never insults my intelligence. You will be engrossed in this one just as you will in any of her books whether set in a teeming American city or Ceasar"s brutally raw Rome (her Roman historical fiction series).
