Tattooed from her neck to her toes—and sporting a gold tooth as sharp as her wisecracks, Sister Holiday struggles to stay on the righteous path. Never one to make things easy for herself, she’s committed to taking her permanent vows with the Sisters of the Sublime Blood and joining former fire inspector Magnolia Riveaux’s latest venture, Redemption Detective Agency—both in service of satisfying her eternal quest for answers.

When Sister Holiday and Riveaux set out to bust a philandering husband, they instead find the body of a priest floating in the swollen Mississippi River, and with it, Redemption’s next case. It’s significantly more gruesome than their orig­inal mission, but Sister Holiday feels called on by God to hunt down the murderer and keep her community safe.

As a torrential rainstorm drowns New Orleans for three harrowing days over Easter weekend, Sister Holiday and Riveaux follow the clues. With the stakes rising alongside the relentless floodwaters, our favorite punk nun-sleuth throws herself into the deep end yet again.

A lacerating and lyrical plunge into obsession, deception, and the questions that hold us captive, Blessed Water is a lights-out mystery that will leave you breathless.

Was just an OK listen. Not that intriguing. Predictable. Could have been more of a thriller.

Interesting but not a thriller.

If you took Armistead Maupin and Anne Patchett and mixed them up with a dash of Lawrence Block and a dollop of The Ramones you’d end up with Margot Douaihy. Her originality blazes a new trail with the characters in this second novel in the series.
Yes the book is short and sweet, like a punk concert. But there is power between the pages, and you are left wanting more. In this case, that’s a good thing. I feel like I discovered a great new band no one knows about yet, before the bloated commercial success ruins them. I know the writer will not let that happen. At least not now in 2024.

Symbolic sweetness

A bit more philosophical than I like. Usually it adds to the understanding but a free time it looses me.

Strange but very good
