Pious Deception

THE CASE OF THE PASSIONATE PRIEST


Kiernan O'Shaughnessy, M.D., former California medical examiner, now detective for hire, is choosy about her cases. But finding out if the hanging of a handsome young priest in a Phoenix, Arizona, church is suicide - or an accident - is one she can't refuse.

The Church and the ambitious Bishop Dowd in particular want to bury the case along with the body. A suicidal priest is shocking but a priest who may have been playing erotic games is a scandal. And hiring O'Shaughnessy could be their biggest mistake. She'll use her top forensic skills to uncover the facts, but her greater talent is for exposing the truth and...in the case of the passionate priest...the truth may be murder.
