Summary

A scared child. A ritual murder.A detective who won’t give up.

When a murder victim is found with an unusual wooden disc beneath their tongue, speculation is rife. Though clues suggest ritual murder and supernatural goings-on, DS Jack Mackinnon knows the perpetrator is very real.

He believes the solution to the case lies in the victims’ personal lives, but while investigating, the team hit obstacles at every turn.

What is the significance of the wooden disc, and who is the mysterious Mr. X?

Mackinnon is sure if he can just answer those two questions, he will solve the case and bring the killer to justice. But can he do so before any further blood is shed?

Deadly Ritual is the fifth book in the DS Jack Mackinnon Crime Series.
