内容简介：
Welcome to Saints, Alabama, a charmin' Southern town. Coroner Alex Holden is young and brilliant. He solved the most heinous crime in Alabama history: the gruesome, ritualistic murders of seven young children. Alex's best friend, Marty Goodfellow, was only a rookie deputy. They solved the murders with Alex's undiscovered, innate ability for solving crimes. Overnight, Alex became Alabama's favorite son. The governor built Alex a state-of-the-art forensic facility. Then Dr. Katie Philips came into his life. He was looking for a new chief deputy, and she had the passion and skill for the job. Katie fell in love with Saints, and settled right in to her new life. Now, things are good in Saints. Marty made chief and the crime rate plummeted. They make a good team, but they'll be tested soon. Loved ones will die. A surgeon will report the murder of a patient, only the patient is still alive. Something so horrific has come to Saints that it makes evil look minor. So, welcome to Saints friend, won't you stay for a spell?
