Synopsis

The West Side Butcher case is driving Detective-Sergeant Len Malecke crazy. He can't figure out what ties the victims together, other than they are all young, all female, and all brutally murdered—partially dismembered, organs missing. The killer must be a madman—and Len Malecke's very good at catching madmen. The West Side Butcher is not mad. An immortal, evil magician, he has been accidentally freed from his hundred-year entombment. The murders are sacrifices to his dark gods, who in return give him wealth, power, and eternal life. The West Side Butcher is in love with Len Malecke's ex-wife. Will she be his next sacrifice—or his chosen companion through eternity?
