A corpse on the altar. A silent witness. A vow that can't be broken.

It’s 2 A.M. in a wealthy Cleveland suburb when a young woman is found murdered—ritually slain and left on the altar at St. Andrew’s Church. Reverend Howard Jamison is discovered covered in blood. A Satanic Bible lies open on his desk. And he isn't talking.

Attorney Hunter St. James, already battling his own demons, is forced onto the case. His once-promising career is collapsing, his socialite girlfriend is pregnant, and now he’s saddled with a pro-bono defense he has no chance of winning. Raised by an infamous father, Hunter has spent a lifetime outrunning disgrace. But now he’s running straight into it. As the trial spirals toward a deadly Halloween climax, Hunter is pulled into the world of secret societies, ancient vows, and a war between good and evil far deeper than he imagined. His atheist beliefs are no match for the forces he’s about to confront.

Meanwhile, psychologist Faith McGuire is desperate for a second chance at life and love. Recently divorced and raising a special-needs son, she’s thrown into the storm just as everything she holds dear is threatened.

To Kill a Saint is a supernatural legal thriller that pierces the veil between the seen and unseen. Faith and fear collide in a race against death. Justice isn't blind... it's being hunted.

Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant! Gripping from the very start - a fantastic thriller that kept me guessing and on the edge of my seat! Suspense, action, surprise, and outrage all rolled into one. Swiger finds a beautiful balance between faith, religion, God's love and humanity. A fantastic read!

Fantasticly gripping!!

I've listened to two of Michael Swinger's books now, both decent stories, but the writing really got on my nerves. There is scarcely a noun that escapes without one, two, even three adjectives or a verb that stands alone. We really don't need all this verbosity to appreciate the story, and the pace and tension would be much greater without it. The preaching also got too much, especially at the end. The other thing that really troubled me in both books was the kind of descriptions of women that were unnecessarily lascivious and not AT ALL Christian. If more time were spent developing character and less to physical appearance, these would be much better books.

Good story but horribly overwritten
