Publisher Description

When a popular youth pastor is accused of a grisly crime, MacLaren Yarbrough won't rest until she finds the truth. Her gut instinct tells her Luke Blessed is innocent. Still, how could the dream he had on the night a young woman was murdered depict the crime with such chilling accuracy? As MacLaren tracks down clues from all corners of Hopewell, GA, four like suspects emerge. But the police aren't buying her theories. Even her husband, local magistrate Joe Riddley, resists her amateur sleuthing. This case, he feels, is too dangerous. Just how dangerous, both of them are about to discover. The assailant strikes again, leaving Joe comatose from a gunshot wound to the head. And suddenly, a new question stares MacLaren in the face. It's the most perplexing question of all -- and the most personal: Why shoot the magistrate?

"Really appreciated the cozy mystery with scripture verse starting each chapter. While I figured out who done it, I still wanted to keep reading to see when they realized who it was. Good story. I will be reading more of this series & ordered some of this authors other series as well!"

    " The second in this series, although I am reading them totally out of order. Although the main character is Christian, I would not call this a Christian mystery. Still, a good series to suggest to people who do not like gory mysteries. "
