Brother Avery, an old friar with a dubious past, is murdered. Police discover a bank account in his name containing a small fortune—a clear violation of his poverty vow. Critical files are missing from the monastery’s records. A young brother, the old monk’s closest friend, is quietly transferred to duties half way around the world. And, as funeral preparations are under way, a total stranger appears to claim Brother Avery’s body and his money.
Audrey Moray, pillar of her community and devoted member of Reverend Hugh Derrick’s congregation, appears in his office one evening to speak with him about “something serious.” She unravels the implausible story of her secret past, of a childhood marred by poverty, abuse, and addiction, and of her miraculous escape from it all. Her husband and family, she reports, know nothing of this. But facts are now coming to light that will blow Audrey’s cover and radically change her life—and that something has to do with an old friar’s death.
