Death in the Old Rectory by Kathie Deviny
A Grace Church Mystery (2nd in series)
Publisher: Camel Press
Price: $4.95 (as of 01/16/2016 at 4:30 PM ET).
For many years Father Robert has called the old rectory at Seattle's Grace Church home. No longer. An enterprising volunteer has come up with a scheme to convert it into a thrift store. With great reluctance, the priest moves to a condo, realizing that the struggling Episcopal parish needs the revenue. As predicted, money is soon rolling in. That is, until disaster strikes: one of the employees, a charismatic young man named Nick, is killed execution-style. Though well loved, Nick had a criminal past. Did his past catch up with him, or was he simply in the wrong place at the wrong time?
Detective Joyce Hitchcock and Officer Raymond Chen are on the case, and once again their efforts are bolstered by the colorful staff and members of Grace Church — Father Robert himself, his fiancée Molly, Deacon Mary, manager of the food bank Terry, Lester the formerly homeless sexton, Daniel the organist, Arlis the church secretary, and senior volunteers Lucy and Mae. Other incidents follow — an explosion, vandalism. The already dwindling congregation is being scared away, and Grace Church may soon be history.
Meanwhile Nick's friends and colleagues can't help but wonder: will the killer strike again?
