Description:
In an age of cynical detectives, it's refreshing to find a mystery hero who stops to pray for guidance from time to time and who makes decisions based on ethics and morality. But Garr Reed, who runs a construction business in the small East Texas town of Mount Sinai, is no slogan-spouting icon of the Christian Right. He's a believable middle-aged man who has returned to his religious roots after a series of bad times (some of them chronicled in Athol Dickson's first book about him, Whom Shall I Fear?) and now needs all the help he can muster to get him through some more. His wife of 20 years, Mary Jo, recently diagnosed with breast cancer, is charged with killing a Catholic priest and seriously wounding a doctor who runs an abortion clinic. Reed learns that Mary Jo has connections to the doctor from her youth in New Orleans, and his search for the truth involves a mixture of powerful religions (including voodoo) and people of all political stripes--none of whom are completely free of sin. A strong story in a well-developed heartland setting. --Dick Adler
