Evil Does Not Repent: A fatal secret. A sacred vow. A merciless killer.

Rate this book
On a stormy night, Father Simon Westerholt is called to the bedside of Thomas Lorenz, a dying former prosecutor. Under the seal of confession, Lorenz admits he protected a murderer—to shield his family from a deadly threat.

That same killer has now escaped prison.

When Lorenz is found the next morning with his throat cut, his loved ones are in grave danger. Bound by the confessional seal, Father Simon cannot reveal what he knows to the authorities. Desperate to prevent more deaths, he enlists the help of Lucia Storm, a skilled former detective inspector who doesn't play by the rules.

Together, they must navigate a murderous game of lies, obsession, and betrayal. But the killer is closer than they realize—and has already chosen his next victim.

Suspenseful. I like Simon and Lucia. Looking forward to the next book in the series. One thing I find annoying about this book is that the word facade/façade is used way too frequently.

Book #3 is still the best in this series, though.
