A Los Angeles transplant, Sister Louise "Lou" LaSalle feels right at
home in Briar Coast, New York. After all, her beloved nephew, Chris,
works at the college founded by her congregation. But while Sister Lou
has always played by the rules, she's about to have her faith in herself
tested--by murder . . .
Sister Lou expects some pushback when she invites her friend, Maurice
Jordan, to be the guest speaker for the St. Hermione of Ephesus Feast
Day presentation. The theology professor is known far and wide for his
controversial views. What she's not prepared for is finding him dead in
his hotel room, bashed over the head.
When the local deputies focus on the members of her congregation as
suspects, Sister Lou takes matters into her own hands. Against Chris's
wishes, she teams up with a cynical local reporter to delve into
Maurice's life. The unlikely partners in crime-fighting uncover a litany
of both devotees and detractors. And though it might take a miracle to
find the killer, Sister Lou vows to carry on until justice prevails . .
