Mystery
Parishioners attending the early mass at St. Anne's find
the body of their beloved priest sprawled, throat slit,
across the floor of the sacristy—a small cross etched in
his chest. It's a tragedy that hits community newspaper editor Monona
Quinn hard. Father O'Bannon was a friend, kind and
dedicated to his parishioners and his calling—so at odds
with the brutality of his death. The cleric was opposed to
the new highway proposal and real estate developers in the
rural Wisconsin area—but how much of a threat could a
parish priest be to big city developers? Was there hidden
enmity among the more opinionated locals, including an
activist teacher and a group of Catholic extremists, or
perhaps some skeleton lurking in the good father's closet?
The answers—and the killer—remain elusive, until a
shocking discovery leads Mo to the terrible and tragic
motive.
