Product Description Peter Silas is the successful pastor of a thriving church until he gets a phone call that rocks his world. His wife is dead. Not just dead, but murdered in the master bedroom of the parsonage with a knife from her own kitchen. A female member of his church, who was seen running from the house, is arrested for the murder. Convinced she isnt the killer, he decides to investigate on his own when the police ignore additional evidence he discovers at the parsonage. In spite of pressure from his superiors to stay out of the investigation, he follows the clues provided by his own forensics expert until he suddenly becomes aware that he is next on the killers list. As pressure mounts from the church and Peter faces an imminent career change, the rest of his family also faces danger. Will he live long enough to find the real killer before they all become victims?
