Blood Expressionist is a mystery thriller that finds a killer delivering messages from beyond the grave through his art. The main character, Legacy, a somewhat damaged, analytical FBI agent, reluctantly leaves the safety of his basement office to catch a killer who sees the world as a canvas which he can coat with his victims’ blood. The Master imprints a code into his works of art that raise his words to the level of gospel; he in fact paints himself as a god.

Legacy sees him as a man. An indecent abomination that represents the greatest challenge of his career. Try as he might, he cannot find a flaw in his execution. But even the perfect crime is susceptible to consolidation – the persistent pressure that caps off future avenues of escape. If Legacy can simply limit the Master, he might eventually paint himself into a corner.

Legacy comes to see the Master’s plan as no-one else can: a big picture divided into individual impulses.  By following a set of clues etched into the paintings at the time of death, Legacy finds a weakness. The trap is set.  In order to get the Master out in the open, Legacy must extinguish what might be the only light in the closing darkness.
