When death comes unexpectedly, is it really better to go quickly, without suffering? Do most people not need these final moments to confess and beg forgiveness?
A middle-aged dentist found executed in his living room. On the wall, a single word, written in blood. South African Police Service Warrant Officer Colin Menck looks about the ‘clean’ scene and is convinced that it was the work of a professional killer.
Who hired him? The main suspect is the victim’s wife, who seems just a bit too unaffected by the murder. But what did he do to deserve such a death?
Less than a week later, Menck finds himself looking at another wall with six bloody letters written on it. The only connection is another unhappy woman, an ex this time, their son a constant source of conflict.
How many names remain on this killer’s list? How many men still have to write GUILTY in their own blood?
