From the back cover: A blasphemous inscription spray-painted on its ancient, hallowed walls was the first sign that something was amiss at Angleby Cathedral. Then camethe body inLittle St. Ulf's tomb: a murdered and mutilated choirboy, his wounds forming the Star of David, in grotesque parody of Little St. Ulf himself, a child murdered 840 years before. Already the malignant strains of anti-Semtism are stirring in the tiny town of Angleby. "Ritual murder!" trumpets the rabble, into the media maw. Pressed by explosive circumstance, Detective Inspector Ben Jurnet first looks to the victim for answers: a quiet boy with a paper route and secrets to burn. Even the cathedral's august Dean seems more concerned with the holy sanctuary than with the devil's work below. And the choirmaster himself does not believe in the reality of evil. But within these sacred precincts, evil has indeed found purchase. And Jurnet must act quickly-before murder stains the cathedral again....
