Description
The Chosen by Sharon Sala is a suspense thriller that follows Washington, D.C. journalist January DeLena as she investigates a string of murders and disappearances that appear connected. When one man is killed, another exhumed, and a dozen others vanish without explanation, January suspects a single, sinister force at work: a disturbed homeless man calling himself The Sinner, who lures victims into his fanatical worldview of salvation and redemption.
As January digs deeper, she draws the attention of homicide detective Benjamin North, whose expertise becomes crucial in piecing together the chilling puzzle. But January carries a personal secret that places her directly in the path of The Sinner’s violent obsession. The novel navigates themes of obsession, morality, and survival, juxtaposing the meticulous work of investigative journalism against the unpredictable dangers of confronting a dangerous criminal.
Set amid the streets and shadows of the U.S. capital, The Chosen delivers a tense, fast-paced narrative of pursuit, revelation, and danger, appealing to readers who enjoy psychological intrigue, high-stakes crime, and a story that keeps its characters—and the reader—on edge until the final page.
