Produktbeschreibung

Enjoy this Small-Town Murder Mystery Featuring A Unique Sleuthing Couple

To honor the town's first responders, the Myerton Business Owner's Association has decided to sponsor an all-expense paid trip to a Jamaican resort. Dan Conway is the lucky winner, and with Father Tom, Helen, and others taking charge of the Conway children, he and Miriam jet off to the Caribbean for one last vacation before their sixth child arrives.

No sooner have the couple left than the body of a multilevel marketing representative is found in the backyard of the home of the host of the weekly meeting of Rosary Mom's. Fortunately, Helen is on the scene, attending the meeting with Father Tom and the Conway children in tow.

Unfortunately, Catherine Conway helps Helen find the body, bringing her the unfortunate woman's red shoe.

With the help of Father Tom, Junior Detective Conway, and two bored moms, Helen investigates who in the woman's life would have wanted her dead . . . and why.

The Rosary Revenge is the twelfth novel in the Mercy and Justice Mystery series, a contemporary small town mystery series. The series is a sequel to the Father Tom Mysteries that began with The Penitent Priest and includes the same cast of characters. It features Father Tom Greer, a Catholic Priest who is also an amateur sleuth in the tradition of Father Brown, and his wife Helen Greer, female Chief of Police and detective in the tradition of Kinsey Millhone.

Autorenporträt

Susan Mathis was born in and grew up in an extremely small town in Alachua County, Florida where her family has lived for more than 100 years. When Susan was still very young, James (J.R) Mathis was born in a somewhat bigger small town about 100 miles south of where she lived. Within a decade, James' small town would become part of Orlando, the biggest tourist destination in the United States. He was not amused. That is how, while Susan was running barefoot, swimming in lakes full of alligators and feeding chickens, James was sitting in his bedroom reading books faster than his father could bring them home from the library.

Were James and Susan to write their love story, it would definitely be an enemies-to-lovers trope. They met in the library where he was working. He found her demands for books that he had to pull and bring to her so unreasonable that he actually turned her into the head librarian. She in turn was so anxious to drive him away that when some friends secretly set them up she laid out an entire speech about how miserable her life was (she is typically very upbeat). Little did she suspect that he had a passionate attraction to misery and they were married just over a year later.

Fast forward 26 years, three children, four grandchildren and 20 years of James working for the Federal government. He was diagnosed with a highly treatable but still very scary form of cancer. As so often happens, this brush with mortality inspired him to do something he'd always wanted to do, write a novel. After the publication of the second Father Tom Mystery, Susan joined him as coauthor. As far as the Mathises are concerned, writing together is the most fun a couple can have sitting at a computer.
