It's just another ordinary day at work for aging 87th Precinct detective Steve Carella and his partner Artie Brown. They're out on the streets, investigating a particularly heinous—and unusual—homicide. A young woman's body has been found in Grover Park; she's been strangled to death. If this isn't bad enough, the autopsy reveals that the murder victim is a nun. Matters get even more complicated when it turns out that this sister of mercy had breast implants. It seems that Sister Mary Vincent—for it is she—had quite a few personal and financial problems in her life.
This complex, disturbing case will require Carella to use all his powers of deduction and draw upon his vast experience as a detective to get to the truth of the matter. That he's able to this while dealing with a serial burglar who leaves behind cookies for his victims, makes us admire Carella all the more.
