Manhattan ghostwriter Jake O'Hara has been meaning to get her so-called love life—and her career—back on track. But, lately, it hasn't been easy. Especially now that her soon-to-be-married mother has witnessed a murder—in a confessional, no less. Shortly after Maura O'Hara arrived at the church, Father Billy Blake—controversy-plagued priest, anti-death penalty activist, and spiritual advisor to a notorious hit man—was shot dead.
It's no secret that Father Blake had a number of enemies—from a scheming drug lord to a dangerous clan on death row. Coming up with a list of suspects isn't the problem. Jake's more worried about keeping her mother out of harm's way. For she's unknowingly stepping into a tangled web of mystery and murder—one that ties into the deadly sins of the past...
