The Eye of Osiris

THE EYE OF OSIRIS is set in 1987 San Francisco, commencing with a murder beneath the pyramid-shaped edifice known as the Transamerica Building. While the Law Offices of McCormick, Redding and Patton appear to be the average, mundane, "business as usual" firm, something is rumbling within; and it's not another earthquake. The first tremor hits when partner Jim Patton is the victim of a ritual-style murder leaving baffling clues and nebulous implications. When the bodies started piling up, Lt. Mendoza and all San Franciscans were hoping it was the work of a serial killer because the thought that a supernatural force was committing these executions was much too unsettling. Clearly, madness was no new plateau for this killer whose victims showed no signs of struggle. No human could possibly be that quick nor that cunning, concluded many of the Bay area citizens. Encrypted with bloody, mysterious messages, the trail led to the Rosicrucian Order. This secret society of illuminati are worshipers of Egyptology who believed in tapping into the universe's incredible supernatural powers. Finally, Lt. Mendoza had to unearth the question that plagued everyone's mind, "Is this the work of a supernatural power, or a super intelligent madman?"
