How do you solve a problem like Marianna?
This year's Advent retreat has been booked for the Congregation of the
Sisters of St. Hermione of Ephesus at the pastoral Briar Coast Cabin
Resorts in New York. But when the combative Sister Marianna practically
loses her religion arguing over minor details with resort co-owner
Autumn Tassler, Sister Louise "Lou" LaSalle blessedly steps in as
peacemaker.
Only days later, Autumn is found strangled in her office, and hot-headed
Sister Marianna becomes the sheriff's deputies' prime suspect. They
believe her missing scarf may be the murder weapon, but Sister Lou
believes Sister Marianna's being framed. If she has a prayer of keeping
Sister Marianna out of prison, she'll need to once again put her faith
in her nephew Chris LaSalle and reporter Shari Henson to help her solve
the case. As the trio tries to cross suspects off the list, Sister Lou
has no choice but to stick her neck out--if she's going to unveil who
was desperate enough to resort to murder . . .
