The Lost Angel (2004)

Old serial killers never go away; they just hibernate and come back hungrier than ever. The Lost Angel (2004) is plagued by a demented spawn of hell who returns after a twenty-year absence to heat up the string of cold cases he’d left behind. The homicidal taunter delights in littering his kills with cryptic hints in dead languages. It will take an unusual law-enforcement alliance to bring this scholarly sociopath to justice. Start with a lady detective who employs a lap dancer’s spontaneity in her repertoire of unconventional interrogation methods and team her with an FBI agent who is coincidentally a priest, and bring in an assist from a deaf church deacon. The powers of heaven and earth have combined in the quest to send the smart-ass slayer straight to hell.
