Hotel Hope Ed Decker

Martin Tanner was a cop once, in his hometown. But that was before.



Before he nearly killed two homeless men in the street. Before he assaulted his wife, her attorney, and his own daughter. Before he was kicked off the force and sent to South Chicago in disgrace.



But anger as hot as his doesn't burn out; it only builds until it becomes a raging inferno. Without the tethers of home or the brotherhood of the badge, Tanner's fury boils over into a sadistic, ritualistic killing spree.



As the Chicago PD scrambles to catch up to the crazed murderer roaming the streets, Episcopal minister Father Reuben Stone is struggling to make the most of a new chapter in his life: retirement in the bleak South Side after fifty happy years in Wisconsin.



But the threat of the serial killer who is stalking the citizens of the city calls for prayer and action, and Father Stone takes up the challenge. He becomes embroiled in a deadly game of cat-and-mouse with Tanner, the madman behind the brutal slayings.



Can a man of God be the savior the city needs?
