The Lazarus prophecy - Francis Cottam

There is a killer loose on the streets of London, one that evades
security cameras, is not held by locks, and savagely mutilates his
victims. When the murderer switches from unknown prostitutes to Julie
Longmuir, a beautiful actress at the height of her success, no woman
feels safe. As the press begin to draw uncomfortable comparisons
with Jack the Ripper, Jane Sullivan, heading up the police
investigation, grudgingly has to agree. But the religious writing,
scrawled on the wall in Julie Longmuir's blood, is outside Jane's area
of expertise. Roping in Jacob Prior, a disillusioned theologian, they
attempt to pick apart the demonic delusions of this Ripper copycat.
They must act quickly, as events are spiralling out of control, and Jane
is next on the killer's list.
Jane will be tested beyond the
limits of standard police work, as the esoteric insinuates itself into
the investigation. For events are linked to the clandestine Priory in
the Pyrenees, the home of a secret Christian sect that pre-dates the
Knights Templar. Jane and Jacob are faced with a deeper mystery than
they had ever dreamed of; are they simply dealing with a psychopath, or
is this something bigger, is this The End of Days?
