The Dead Speak
A waitress's body has been discovered in a back-alley dumpster by the night janitor at Von Sleigo Tool and Die Co. Her body has been dismembered and displayed in the usual shocking macabre scene. Detective Anthony James and his partner Detective Patrick White are at the scene. Detective James knows immediately who is responsible for this gruesome death. The 'Butcher' is at again.
The murders started ten years ago. It was a hot and humid August day in St. Louis when a lonely gas inspector discovered the 'Butcher's" handiwork. Three bodies were found dismembered in the basement of an abandoned home. A rookie detective at the time, Anthony James had no idea how this gruesome scene would affect the rest of his life and curse him with the ability to hear the dead speak. Detective James's uncanny ability led him through years to solve cases and bring killers to justice that many would never have suspected.
The identity and capture of the 'Butcher' have eluded Detective James, that is until now. Has the 'Butcher' finally made a mistake with his latest victim? Or is the 'Butcher'' playing a clever game of cat and mouse that will send Detective Anthony James and his partner Detective Patrick White down a different path? A path that will expose deceit, infidelity, and betrayal. Corruption at the highest level. Has the 'Butcher' miscalculated his evilness? Will Detective James' ability to hear the dead speak be enough to bring the 'Butcher' to justice? To finally reveal who the 'Butcher' has been all this time. A person who in their right mind would never suspect.
