📗 In the course of ministering to a member of his congregation, things go terribly wrong, and Pastor Pratt is arrested on suspicion of a very serious crime. A whole catalogue of misery and despair is subsequently opened, plunging everyone involved to depths of pain and confusion they hardly knew existed.As those involved struggle for their sanity, can DI Penny and the eccentric Dr Emily help them find any light at the end of a long, dark tunnel? What, exactly, happened in the Chapel? How do they begin to make sense of a series of uncanny coincidences connected to the Pastor? How could one man be capable of such hypocrisy and unrelenting callousness?Then there is the secretive Mrs Veronica Pratt about whom there is much concern - with good cause!Although written with a degree of humour (the account of a service in Pastor Pratt's chapel is hilarious), the author has nevertheless tackled serious issues with intelligence, sensitivity and insight.
