Bad Samaritan
Aimée Thurlo

The small southwestern town of Bernalillo, New Mexico, is in the midst of a particularly heated election campaign---and one of the two candidates running for sheriff has turned up dead. In addition, the prime suspect in his murder is his rival, Sheriff Tom Green. In a small community word goes around quickly, and almost immediately one of Sheriff Green's most indefatigable allies is on the case---Sister Agatha." "Sister Agatha is an extern nun for the local community of nuns, Our Lady of Hope monastery, and she has become renowned---and occasionally infamous---for her crime-solving skills. Now, with one of her oldest and best friends---and a friend of the monastery---in jail, possibly being framed for a crime he didn't commit, Sister Agatha must bring all of her skills to bear on what may be her most important, and dangerous, investigation to date." At the same time, the monastery itself is facing a crisis---its doors may be about to close for good. With time pressures on her coming from all sides, Sister Agatha is determined to solve this one last case and vindicate her friend before it is too late.
