An arsonist is setting fire to local houses of worship. Reverend Olympia Brown can't possibly know that hers is next on the list. What she does know is that this historic community church has more dark secrets than stones on a beach and the sand that is covering them is rapidly washing away. The more she digs into the past, she soon learns that the 'old-guard' members of the congregation will do anything to stop her...until it all goes up in flames. What happens after that is anyone's guess...and there's only one way to find out.
One of my favourite series, the Olympia Brown mysteries are always a pleasure. Tightly plotted, with subtle ties between the distant past and the timely present, this latest installment deals with dark issues. Olympia’s grace under fire is put to another test.
One of Judith Campbell's best books.She takes on current events and social justice issues and puts things in perspective. Her characters are relatable and her mysteries fun. Judith Campbell is one of my favorite authors.
