    One Hand Killing introduces Alex Sullivan, 45 year-old, soon to be retired NYPD homicide detective and novice Zen student into the mystery genre. And in the tradition of the best murder mysteries, it offers the reader entree into a new experience: the esoteric world of a Zen Monastery – a place that has been a haven for Alex from the hell of her job, a place that is meant to be sacrosanct, where murder, suspicion and mayhem are not supposed to happen, a place that just might harbor people running from their pasts.


    Three dead monks, a severed hand, and a cat sliced in half embroils Alex in the worst kind of case – one that involves people she cares about; which forces her to suspect evil of her fellow students and to train a cold cop eye on the Enlightened Master himself.


    A fast-paced murder mystery that is also a fascinating psychological portrait of the struggle between light and dark forces in the spiritual world, One Hand Killing is a new and unusual twist in the suspense genre, going well beyond Who-done-it? to a more sophisticated literary koan: What, indeed, is the sound of one hand killing?
