There’s a wrap-around porch complete with swing. The view from the back is, in a word, breathtaking. The master suite is huge, complete with a bathroom that looks like it was plucked from an exclusive spa resort and a stone fireplace. The upstairs has a fantastic kitchen with top-of-the-line appliances and cabinets and a living room with another stone fireplace. It has everything we’ve been looking for. If it just weren’t for the dead body . . . We loved the cabin as soon as we laid eyes on it. Then, we found the body. The victim is a famous speaker who runs a ministry teaching women how to be ‘perfect Christian wives and mothers.’ It was also her cabin, just put up for sale by her husband. At first glance, it looks like the poor woman was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. But the more we investigate, the less certain we are. Dan and I pursue one suspect after another. But each have alibis. We’re at a loss to figure this out. Then we find the woman had a secret . . . and her secret may have gotten her killed. The Cabin Corpse is book 11 in the Mercy and Justice Mysteries, 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.

Book Description
Enjoy this Contemporary Small-Town Murder Mystery Featuring A Unique Sleuthing Couple There are few things worse than the loss of a child. When Sally Mayfield, Vincent Trent’s fiance, has a miscarriage, their grief is palpable. As a priest, it’s my job to comfort in times of loss like this. But Sally didn’t simply have a miscarriage. Blood tests find an abortion-inducing drug in her system. Vincent is hurt and angry. Sally swears she didn’t take anything, and claims someone must have given her the drug without her knowledge or consent. Not only that, she points the finger at the one person she can think of who hated her baby so much. Her own mother, Samantha. Under the fetal homicide law, the death of Sally’s unborn baby at fourteen weeks isn’t murder. But the stabbing death of her mother definitely is. Now, the grief-stricken father stands accused. Everyone who knows Vincent says he couldn’t possibly be guilty. I firmly believe that he’s innocent. But I’ve been wrong before . . . There are few things worse than the loss of a child. When she loses her baby and an abortion-inducing drug is found in her system, Sally points the finger at her mother, Samantha. After Sally secretly records her mom admitting to slipping her the drug without her knowledge or consent, I have no choice but to arrest her. In doing so, I ignite a controversy that threatens to divide our small community–a controversy fanned by Samantha herself, who twists the facts to her own advantage. It doesn’t help that the woman’s an old friend of my boss, the Mayor. The case against Samantha falls apart due to lack of evidence. Soon after, she’s found dead in her home, stabbed to death. Vincent Trent is identified as the young man seen running from the scene. I have no choice but to arrest him. The evidence is circumstantial, but damning. In my heart, I know he’s innocent. But proving that is another story . . . The Heavy Hearts is book ten in The Mercy and Justice Mysteries, a contemporary small town mystery series. The series is a sequel to The Father Tom Mysteries that begins with The Penitent Priest and includes the same cast of characters.
