The serenity of a Baltimore church courtyard . . .
Is broken by the corpse of a priest.
Who would commit such a terrible crime?
Another reverend hires private investigator C.T. Ferguson to solve the case. C.T. learns the murdered man was popular with a wide range of church and community members.
Someone clearly hated him, however . . . and the killer focuses on C.T.
When he uncovers questionable connections in the priest’s history—ranging from local gangs all the way to City Hall—C.T. wonders why so many people might want a man of the cloth dead.
As soon as C.T. thinks he has an angle on the homicide, his secretary T.J. discovers new information which complicates the case and muddies the waters.
Can C.T. identify the killer before his body is the next to turn up?
