Paradox

This is Gorman's darkest and most powerfully human novel to date.

He intentionally neglects to name the city that serves as the setting for this disturbing tale of a man who is trying to rid the streets of sin.

The man sees himself as an agent of God. But the cops view him as a vicious serial killer. He thinks he is haunted by spirits, mostly those of his victims. And these ghosts claim to represent either God or Satan as they encourage him to continue his murder spree.

The story alsofocuses on a dysfunctional family. For some reason, the killer is always near as they try to sort out their many problems.
