Ali Reynolds and her team at High Noon Enterprises must race against the clock to save an archbishop who faces mysterious death threats in yet another incredible (Suspense Magazine) installment of J.A. Jances New York Times bestselling series.
Years after her sons fatal overdose, grieving mother Rachel Higgins learns that his addiction may have grown out of damage suffered at the hands of a pedophile priest while he was in high school. Looking for vengeance, she targets the Catholic Churchs most visible local figure, Archbishop Francis Gillespie. When the archbishop begins receiving anonymous threats, local police dismiss them, saying theyre not credible. So he turns to his friends, Ali Reynolds and her husband, B. Simpson.
With B. out of the country on a cybersecurity emergency, its up to Ali to track down the source of the threats. When a shooter assassinates the archbishops driver and leaves the priest himself severely injured, Ali forms an uneasy alliance with a Phoenix homicide cop in hopes of preventing another attack. But Ali doesnt realize that the killer has become not only more unhinged but also more determined to take out his or her target.
Poignant . . . Jance has rendered a masterly study of the effects of grief, rage, and the power of forgiveness.
