The Dangerous Devotion: A Contemporary Small Town Sleuthing Couple Mystery
About this ebook
Donna Macoan rushes into Father Tom’s office one morning, claiming that her statue of the Blessed Virgin Mary is shedding tears of blood. In spite of his efforts to keep the purported miracle quiet until it can be investigated by the Archdiocese, an article published in the Saint Francis Center student newspaper about it gets picked up by a major online Catholic news site. Hoards of miracle-seekers descend on Myerton, presenting a headache for Father Tom, Helen, and Cardinal Knowland. But when someone steals the statue, Father Tom and Helen realize they have two mysteries on their hands.
The Dangerous Devotion is the twenty-first novel in The Mercy and Justice Mysteries, a contemporary small town mystery series. The series is a sequel to The Father Tom Mysteries that began with The Penitent Priest and includes the same cast of characters. It features Father Tom Greer, a Catholic Priest who is also an amateur sleuth in the tradition of Father Brown, and his wife Helen Greer, female Chief of Police and detective in the tradition of Kinsey Millhone.
