    [synopsis] => "The surprises keep coming in La Salle's twisting debut thriller, in which good and evil aren't always black and white."-Kirkus Reviews, Starred Review

	From actor, director, producer, and author Eriq La Salle, comes the first in a heart-pounding crime thriller series. Every ten years, for the past 30 years, a dozen clergymen are killed, brutally murdered in twisted scenes emulating the deaths of Jesus and his disciples. Now, "The Martyr Maker" has set his mark on New York City.

	30 years. 36 priests butchered. His bloodiest masterpiece is yet to come.

	The Laws of Depravity follows two NYPD detectives and an FBI agent as they race to catch a serial killer before he completes his last cycle of kills and disappears forever.

	Clerical transgressions at the heart of Spotlight meets the visceral horror of Thomas Harris's Red Dragon, for a gritty, dark story about of how some of the most trusted members of society fail. The Laws of Depravity raises eye-opening questions about faith when the lines between good and evil have blurred beyond recognition.

	



	Praise for Laws of Depravity:

	"Laws of Depravity may be the most engrossing book you read this year, bar none."-Lee Ashford, Reader's Favorites

	"...an utterly compelling and riveting thriller with echoes of the dark master, Thomas Harris. Here, La Salle also adds a surprising twist by weaving in a spiritual component that raises the narrative to lofty and thought-provoking levels. It's a wonderful accomplishment."-Leonard Chang, author of Over the Shoulder and Crossings

	"Actor and director Eriq La Salle's intense debut is a modern day parable cleverly masquerading as a crime novel. A muscular, gritty and spiritual thriller."-John Shors, bestselling author of Beneath a Marble Sky, Beside a Burning Sea, Dragon House, The Wishing Trees, and Cross Currents

	"Laws of Depravity will take you on a heart-pounding ride of vengeance, murder and atonement, never letting you rest until you've reached the final page."-Neal Baer, co-author of Kill Switch and former Executive Producer of "Law and Order S.V.U."

	



	"A gritty crime thriller, spiritual quest, and love story all woven into one compelling tale."-Publishers Weekly
