The Sin Slayer by Nelson O. Ottenhausen

For over thirty years, a self-ordained church leader has convinced his small congregation to secretly kill dozens of people after hearing an inner voice, whom he believes to be God, tells him to cleanse the world of chosen sinners.               

The sinners are criminals who committed heinous crimes and escaped capital punishment because of a legal or technical oversight, allowing them to go free.  The tormented religious fanatic and his followers abduct the hapless sinners, torture them for days, then administer divine absolution; a brutal and sacrificial death.
             

An investigation into three unrelated crimes by a shrewd county sheriff uncovers the mysterious carnage and shocks a rural mid-western farm community to its very core.

THE KILLING ZONE: Evil’s Playground  
Nelson O. Ottenhausen
 
Review by Natalija Nogulich

The purpose of any book is to get you to turn the page.  From the first kill in Ottenhausen’s The Killing Zone, the author hooks us into a journey with twists and turns and unpredictable unfoldings.  What starts out as a dramatic homicide that literally crashes into an upscale Hotel dining room, becomes a maddening sequence of crimes, strangely linked together by the six degrees of separation that seem to dangle humanity by a strand of silk.

Lt. O’Malley, a cross between a rugged Gary Cooper and a somewhat more ragged Russel Crowe, bangs heads with the hot shot Medical Examiner who happens to be his ex-wife, as they each sift through the not so random clues that lead them to the most unlikely killer.  Ottenhausen’s authentically chilling accounts of the murders, artfully executed by an elusive killer, keep the reader demanding answers that don’t come until the author deems the moment right.

Add to this perfect recipe for a thriller, the urban politics of a corrupt investigation of a politician’s daughter’s death, and an untimely attempt upon the life of O’Malley’s good pal and superior, and a good man still wrestling with his issues with women he happens to love, and you’ve got a compelling book that won’t find it’s way to the nightstand till you finish. 
Nelson Ottenhausen’s clean, clipped prose makes the story the star of the show, as it should be when it’s as good as this one.  Be prepared to be caught unprepared for this read 

It would make a terrific thriller movie, it’s that good.
