Plot summary
Pastor Steven Drew's faith is shattered after one of his newly baptized members, Alice Hayward, is murdered by her abusive husband George, who then seems to commit suicide. The pastor meets an author/Detective, Catherine Benincasa, working on a book about angels who helps him face his demons, and the law. Evidence surfaces that there was an affair between Alice and Reverend Drew. Katie, the Haywards’ orphaned 15-year-old daughter, is the only key to uncover the disturbing secrets of what happened behind closed doors on that fateful night and the suffering they endured as a “not so perfect” family.[3][4]
