Publisher's Summary
A small-town pastor confronts a mystery surrounding the death of a member of his congregation.
Pastor Brian Matterson leads a community of the faithful at All Saints Lutheran Church in Martin Valley, a suburb of Minneapolis. Brian, a recovering alcoholic with a dogged sense of duty, is trying to handle various everyday challenges with good humor when tragedy strikes: A member of his congregation, Candy Vinter, has hanged herself in her family home. She’d been dealing with breast cancer and the effects of chemotherapy, but even so, the chance that she might commit suicide had never crossed Brian’s mind.
When he visits the family - her husband, Mickey, and their children - he senses something secret underneath the surface of their grief. After police investigate further, Brian finds himself confronting conflicting sets of priorities; meanwhile, he continues to juggle his ordinary responsibilities, including other family tragedies.
The autho, a Lutheran pastor himself, portrays Brian’s world with three-dimensional texture so that even the daily details of life at All Saints become surprisingly gripping reading.
