Meet MacLaren Crane Yarbrough, a spunky Southern woman on the sunset end of 60 with a knack for getting tangled up in mystery and murder. The quiet rural community of Hopewell, Georgia is rocked by its first murder in 40 years. But have the police pinned young Amanda Kent's killing on Pastor Luke Wallace without considering other possible suspects?

When a popular youth pastor is accused of a grisly crime, MacLaren Yarbrough won't rest until she finds the truth. Her gut instinct tells her Luke Blessed is innocent. Still, how could the dream he had on the night a young woman was murdered depict the crime with such chilling accuracy? As MacLaren tracks down clues from all corners of Hopewell, GA, four like suspects emerge. But the police aren't buying her theories. Even her husband, local magistrate Joe Riddley, resists her amateur sleuthing. This case, he feels, is too dangerous. Just how dangerous, both of them are about to discover. The assailant strikes again, leaving Joe comatose from a gunshot wound to the head. And suddenly, a new question stares MacLaren in the face. It's the most perplexing question of all -- and the most personal: Why shoot the magistrate?
