Randal Troyman had been told by God what he must do to achieve his position in heaven. He had even been given a book of life, that would show him who he would need to release, so their souls could be judged by God. There was but one obstacle which would in the end, be his greatest adversary. This old warrior would be his final release, ascending him to his heavenly purpose. Detective Dale Chider had been on the force, longer than he wanted to remember. He had confronted his share of crazies and serial killers, but never anything like this one. There was something about this killer that bothered him. He was always one step ahead of them. It seemed as though he killed just to view him and his partner in action. Then the killer grabbed Dale's partner, that changed everything. Now he would stop at nothing to catch this guy and put an end to his slaughtering. Even if it meant going outside of the law.
