Publisher Description

Who Done It... and Why? Ollie Chandler is a brilliant and quick-witted homicide detective who lives by Ollie’s First Law: “Things are not what they appear.” When a university professor is found murdered and the motive looks like revenge, a stunning discovery leads Ollie to an unimaginable conclusion. Could the murderer be a fellow homicide detective? As he probes deeper, another detective is murdered. What is the root of this jumbled, deceptive mess of lies and secrets? Jake Woods returns from Deadline and Clarence Abernathy from Dominion, in this heart-pounding murder mystery bristling with tension and suspicion. Deception will take you to heaven and hell and back again…breathless to discover the truth.

"Another good detective novel by Randy Alcorn. Not my favorite of the three but I did enjoy it. I liked the issues the first 2 in the series dealt with while this was just a good detective novel. I did like the fact that the main character loved Nero Wolfe, one of my favorite detective reads. "

    " Too much detail on the characters. Interesting plot and I really wanted to like it, but it was more of a story about how two friends were trying to convert their friend to Christianity than a murder mystery. Wasn't a keep-me-up-at-night-page-turner. "

    " Alcorn is a great fiction writer. This is a book that made me laugh out loud and made me tear up, too. It has suspense and truth and hope. I'm recommending it to many. While reading I discovered it's book 3 of a trilogy - yet the books all stand alone. I will read the first two. "
