A modern mythological fantasy Book One in the Out of the Mist series.
Alan Templeton, sergeant of detectives in the small city of Salt Lake, has a mess on his hands. He and his team are investigating two series of murders that he is convinced are somehow linked. They are very unusual, however. In some of the killings--ritualistic sacrifices--there is no evidence left behind by the murderers, while on the others there is an orgy of evidence that makes no sense. He has to solve them quickly, before more people fall victim to the grisly crimes.
Chance Black, a man who is finding it hard to cope with life due to his hideous appearance, is suddenly saddled with Felice, a young woman who is convinced that she is in danger from the cult-like following she had been involved in.
Creirwy Edwards, the strikingly beautiful leader of the cult Felice has fled, is convinced that she is a Goddess from ancient times. Worse yet, she is also convinced that Chance is her long lost brother, Morfran.
