Dualessence

The East End community of Pittsburgh is alarmed when a serial rapist attacks several women in their homes. For reporter Matt O'Shea, who is assigned by his editor to cover the story, this is a routine matter until a dear, lifelong friend becomes one of the victims and is murdered. In a state of despair, Matt wanders into a church one evening. There he meets an old priest and relates the pain he is experiencing and his determination to stop the assailant before he harms anyone else. Seeing that justice and not revenge motivates Matt, the priest assures him he will be able to prevent further attacks. Not long after, Matt experiences the strange phenomenon of suddenly being present where the rapist attacks and preventing him from harming other women. This leads to an inevitable confrontation between Matt and the knife-wielding rapist and a deadly struggle ensues.McCarthy, Bob is the author of 'Dualessence', published 2004 under ISBN 9781413737790 and ISBN 141373779X.
