Blind sight
(Book)

Mallory's childhood priest appeals to her past as a young pickpocket who benefited from streetwalkers' kindnesses when he asks her to look into the disappearance of a young nun with a history of child prostitution. But before Mallory tracks Sister Michael down, the nun's body is dumped with four others on the front lawn of Gracie Mansion, home of New York's mayor. Sister Michael's blind nephew, Jonah, has also gone missing from the site where she was snatched, and his aunt's murder pits an increasingly determined Mallory against NYPD brass, diocese representatives, and the mayor.
