A twisted killer is terrorizing New Orleans, murdering vulnerable young women. Hell-bent on stopping him, NOPD detective Frank Renzi teams up with African-American journalist Rona Jefferson, who believes police unfairly target black male suspects.
A tip leads them to believe the killer may be a young white priest, an allegation that enrages the Catholic community. As the cops close in, the killer persuades an emotionally fragile teenager to run away with him. They hit the road and the chase is on.
"The book manages to hold its own even in this crowded genre, thanks to its relentless tempo and Fleet's sharp writing." Kirkus Discoveries Read Chapter 1

From cover to end ABSOLUTION is unique in plot, accurate in setting, and a book impossible to put down. I can hardly wait for the next one. Betty W, New Orleans LA
Excellent! Well paced, well developed characters, kept my interest until the last page. When does the next one come out? I am looking forward to reading more. Bruce H, Providence, RI
The bad guy was creepy, handsome, but really creepy and sick! The ending was a surprise. Will this be a series? I liked Frank Renzi and would read more books about him. Jennifer W, Alexandria, LA
Intertwines relevant 21st century issues with captivating character development, suspenseful action, and a perfect little twist of humor now and then. Much of the novel's uniqueness comes from knowing the identity of the criminal and seeing inside his sick personality. Absolution stands in a league of its own - far above the ordinary whodunnit. Bravo! Kathy H, Jacksonville, FL
