Grievous Sin cover

In this gripping tale, Pete Decker investigates a missing newborn and a nurse, uncovering family secrets and deep-rooted betrayals in Grievous Sin.

In Grievous Sin, Sergeant Pete Decker is faced with an unsettling mystery that begins on a deeply personal note. Moments after witnessing the birth of his first child, he senses that something is amiss, not just with his newborn but also within the hospital's environment. His instincts are soon validated when a newborn baby goes missing, alongside the nurse responsible for the post-natal unit. This alarming situation compels Decker to take on the case, leading him into a complex web of secrets and family dynamics.

As the investigation unfolds, the discovery of a burnt-out car belonging to the missing nurse, along with charred remains found in a remote ravine, raises the stakes significantly. Decker, alongside his partner, must navigate through layers of family tragedy and betrayal that have culminated in the desperate kidnapping of an innocent baby girl. The deeper they dig, the more they realize that the case is not just about a missing child but is intertwined with dark family histories.

Grievous Sin challenges Pete Decker to confront not only the criminal elements at play but also the emotional toll of the case on his own family. With each clue uncovered, the stakes rise, and Decker's resolve is tested as he races against time to bring the truth to light and save the child.
