SOFT-BOILED MYSTERY
preaching to the corpse
The holidays have arrived in postcard-perfect Guilford, CT, but someone's taking the joy out of the season...
 
Psychologist/advice columnist Dr. Rebecca Butterman gets a call in the middle of night from the minister at her church. He's in custody after going to a fellow parishioner's home and finding her dead.  The murdered matron was the leader of a search committee charged with finding a new assistant pastor after the previous assistant left in a rush.  Rebecca learns that the committee was divided--has someone tried to eliminate the competition?  Rebecca puts her analytical skills to work to do her own search--for a killer. All while resisting the urge to break the seventh commandment with a very married detective, and praying she's not the next victim.
