Publisher's summary

Dallas Homicide detectives Tori Hunter and Samantha Kennedy investigate the murder of a Catholic priest who is found naked and strangled to death. A sex scandal threatens to erupt and cover-ups are soon revealed as their only suspect is found shot dead - mere hours after the murder.

Soon details of the murder begin to surface, and the secret life of a well-loved priest is exposed. Lies and deceptions unfold as the detectives work to solve the case - even as their superiors demand it be closed.

You Had Me at ABBY CRADEN!

I love audiobooks. I love Gerri Hill's audiobooks. I, of course, loved this new Gerri Hill audiobook and it's just sweeter having the best narrator to tell us the story. Once there was an amazing book titled, "Hunter's Way". In this book, Hunter and Sam are back to investigate a murder mystery of a dead priest. you don't need to know anything about the first Hunter book to listen and instantly love this book. Even though I said how great this audiobook was, my favorite Gerri Hill books on audible are " the Secret Pond", "seventeen", and... "Hunter's Way" for anyone looking for a great suggestion.

The ending was disappointing

I liked the characters and thought the mystery was quite gripping, everything was good entil the ending. I felt it was very unsatisfactory.
**spoilers***
The "mystery" was never fully solved, there's no evidence why the given solution is actually the truth. why should we believe what one character said? because the main character thinks it is true? it also leaves a lot of loose ends still untied.
What erk me the most was one of the main mysteries - who the priest had consensual sex with right before his death - was never resolved. yes he had a lover, but that lover left a few days before his death?
Please write a sequel to this and completely 180 the story. I would love to read that.

Excellent.

I had already read the book. But that did not detract from the quality and suspense of the audio. Abby Craden does her usual wonderful job with the narration.

The best book ever!

One of the the earlier Hill books I read way back in my younger days, I fell head over heels in love with Sam and Hunter in the first book Hunter's Way, I was so glad to see Tori and Sam emotionally growning iin the this book along with the adding of a new friend for Tori; Casey. The deep detective story helps the book also.

Love Gerri Hill’s books!

I have many copies of Gerri Hill’s books. I especially love the ones narrated by Abby Craden. She does a wonderful job of bringing life to the characters.

Please ma’am, may we have some more....
