The Priest: Mendenhall Mysteries

By Marcelle Dube

Chief of Police Kate Williams doesn't understand why Constable Trepalli calls her into his investigation of the break-in at the priest's house. The young constable is a competent investigator and doesn't usually need hand-holding, especially not for a straightforward B&E. Then Trepalli shows her what he found on the priest's bed and Kate's heart sinks. Now she will have to confront the priest—a man she doesn't know well but respects—and brave the Catholic Church's ire.

 

It's going to be a long day.

 

A short story featuring Chief Kate Williams by the author of The Shoeless Kid, The Tuxedoed Man, The Weeping Woman, The Untethered Woman and The Forsaken Man.

 

Marcelle Dubé weaves another addictive story featuring Kate Williams, new chief of police in tiny Mendenhall, Manitoba. Readers who like strong characters will enjoy Kate and her constables as she faces a tricky new case. Marcelle's short fiction has appeared in a number of magazines and anthologies. Her Mendenhall Mysteries—short stories and novels—are all available electronically as well as in print.
