Father Brendan O'Clery thought his biggest worry this year would be whether his nephew Aiden survived first-year theology-but when seminarians start dropping faster than confessions after Mass, Father Brendan can't resist getting involved. His detective niece, Maureen McNeely, relies on her uncle's gift for puzzles, while Father Brendan-never one to resist a mystery-cheerfully ingratiates himself into her investigations.
With the help of his two best friends and poker-night pals, Rabbi Ezra Lieberman and Pastor Langdon Boothe, the trio of clerics wade into a mystery filled with cryptic clues, cover-ups, and a few unholy laughs, mixing murder and mischief in equal measure, as they dive headfirst into the mystery, uncovering a web of deceit, ambition, and long-buried sins.
As the body count rises and Aiden's name creeps to the top of the suspect list, the friends must solve the case before evil claims its next victim.
