Murder in the Rectory

by Tom Mach

Overview

It is 1982, when whispers of clerical abuses are just beginning to spread across America--and one small town is about to turn on an innocent priest. Father Luke Taylor wants nothing more than a quiet life of service. But when suspicion and lies brand him as something he's not, a secret vigilante group decides to take justice into their own hands. Murder shatters the parish. The killer believes he's beyond the law—until an unexpected twist brings the truth to light.

Murder in the Rectory is a tense, heart-pounding mystery about a father's love for his daughter, followed by fear, vengeance, and the deadly power of a single lie.
