Now, nearly 8,000 of these so-called 'supers' live hidden among us, their existence a secret the world isn't ready to face. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eGabi and her partner, Ian Armory, are assigned to the case. The killer is ruthless and methodical, staging each body in grotesque, ritualistic displays. With the victims seemingly unconnected-different ages, backgrounds, and lives-the investigation stalls. Is this the work of two killers, a brilliant psychopath, or something even more dangerous: a superhuman turned violent? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIf a super really is behind the murders, Gabi knows the uneasy truce that keeps their existence hidden could collapse-because a superhuman killer is the one thing that would force the government to expose the truth. And once that secret's out, the world will never be the same.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Julia Derek\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798183504651\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/21\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 220\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.49lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.50d","brand":"Julia Derek","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":49173862252799,"sku":"9798183504651","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0e39563a-84ff-479f-8ef8-beae317f92ff.jpg?v=1788956682","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-crucifier-julia-derek-9798183504651","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
