English Summary/英文概要： Millers Kill reaches the boiling point in this white-hot novel of love and suspense People die. Marriages fail. In the small Adirondack town of Millers Kill, New York, however, life doesn’t stop for heartbreak. A brand-new officer in the police department, a breaking-and-entering, and trouble within his own family keep Police Chief Russ Van Alstyne busy enough to ignore the pain of losing his wife---and the woman he loves.

At St. Alban’s Episcopal Church, the Reverend Clare Fergusson is trying to keep her vestry, her bishop, and her National Guard superiors happy---all the while denying her own wounded soul.

When a Mexican farmhand stumbles over a Latino man killed with a single shot to the back of his head, Clare is sucked into the investigation through her involvement in the migrant community. The discovery of two more bodies executed in the same way ignites fears that a serial killer is loose in the close-knit community. While the sorrowful spring turns into a scorching summer, Russ is plagued by media hysteria, conflict within his department, and a series of baffling assaults.

As the violence strikes closer and closer to home, an untried officer is tested, a wary migrant worker is tempted, and two would-be lovers who thought they had lost everything must find a way to trust each other again---before it becomes forever, fatally, too late.

Julia Spencer-Fleming shows you can escape danger---but not desire---in her most suspenseful, passionate novel yet.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 米勒斯的杀戮在这本充满爱和悬疑的小说里达到了最高潮。人世间的死亡。婚姻的失败。对纽约州北部米勒斯的阿迪朗达克小镇来说，生活不管怎样都不会因为伤心欲绝而停止前行。在警察局内的一名全新官员，一起强行入室案件和他自己麻烦缠身的家事，使得警察局长拉斯・范・亚斯提尼忙得几乎忘却了痛失爱妻的痛苦。
在圣•奥尔本的圣公会教堂，牧师克莱尔・弗格森设法让她的教区委员会、她的主教和她的国民自卫队都能称心如意，而始终无视自己已经伤痕累累的心灵。
当一个墨西哥农场工人被一个拉丁裔男子用单发枪击中后脑勺倒地而亡时，克莱尔被卷入了这起移民社区的调查案件中。她发现另外两具尸体也以这种同样的谋杀方式在社区内散播着恐惧，调查证明一个连环杀手正在这个严谨的社区里肆意妄为。当忧伤的春季变成了灼热的夏季时，拉斯深受着媒体永无休止的连篇报道，以及他与部门间的冲突隔阂，和一系列令人莫名其妙的袭击困扰折磨。随着暴力的攻击逐步逼近，一个没有实战经验的官员正经受着考验，和一位禁不住诱惑的小心翼翼的移民工人，在一切尚未铸成大错之前，两位自认自己已经失去一切，是否能为再度彼此信任，为重拾旧爱找到一条出路呢。
茱莉亚•斯宾塞弗莱明向你证明了即使你可以避开危险，但你不要指望能将视线远离她的这部最为悬疑，和激情的小说故事中。(Sandy)

From Publishers Weekly

At the start of Anthony-winner Spencer-Fleming’s solid sixth mystery to feature Clare Fergusson, an Episcopal priest, and Russ Van Alstyne, her police chief admirer, Clare and Russ are still trying to recover from the death of Russ’s wife, Linda, in All Mortal Flesh (2006). Clare and Russ do their best to steer clear of each other in the small town of Millers Kill, N.Y., but when a van carrying Mexican migrant workers en route to jobs at local farms is ambushed, the pair find themselves caught up in an investigation of drug smuggling and gang turf wars. After a number of Latino corpses turn up, Clare and Russ begin to question whether trouble followed the migrant workers or if it’s the work of someone closer to home. While the plot takes some implausible turns, Clare and Russ’s complex romantic dance is as compelling as ever. The cliffhanger ending will leave readers eagerly awaiting the next installment in this notable regional series. (June)

From Booklist

*Starred Review* A suspected serial killer in the town of Millers Kill in Upstate New York takes a backseat to the simmering relationship between Police Chief Russ Van Alstyne and Episcopal priest Clare Fergusson in the sixth entry in this tantalizing series. Emotions are raw between the two in the aftermath of a lethal hostage situation and the death of Russ’ wife, Linda, in All Mortal Flesh (2006), so they seek diversion (including Clare’s joining the National Guard) and try to avoid each other. But the priest, feisty almost to the point of being foolhardy, is always in the thick of things, as when bodies of Latino men start turning up. Spencer-Fleming poses the issue of immigration, showing how the hiring of undocumented migrant workers impacts the Van Alstyne family; and she introduces an appealing new character, single mother Hadley Knox, granddaughter of the Episcopal church sexton, who joins the police force and captivates fellow officer Kevin Flynn. Action rachets up in a deadly shoot-out with drug-dealing Latino gangbangers, and just when resolution seems within reach, there’s a final twist. Keenly moving and occasionally laugh-out-loud funny, this is a tour de force in a series that seems to have jumped several levels in quality. --Michele Leber
