Publisher's summary

Father Nicolas Chatry pushes his wheelchair into the confessional and pulls back the small door that covers the screen between the booths when he hears someone enter.

“Bless me, Father, for I have sinned,” a voice whispers.

“Welcome,” Nicolas says. “What do you have to confess?”

“I killed her.”

Nicolas’s pulse shoots up, and he sucks in a breath. “Are you saying you willingly took the life of another person?”

“Yes. God is the reason I killed her. Will you absolve me, Father?”

As Nicolas fumbles for his phone to send an urgent text for help, he hears the chair in the other booth squeak, and a shadow passes in front of the screen. His pulse pounds in his temples and he starts to sway, dizziness washing over him.

Help isn’t going to make it in time.

Really good story line

I have the whole Shaye Archer series and I really like it. This book is the best in the series as far as I’m concerned. It has mystery and is thrilling too. A must listen if you like mysteries and thrillers.

Sin

Ok this one had some serious religious overtones.

I wasnt sure who it was even at the last minute.

There were way too many people to sort through. But I really loved that even though the young priest gave up his vows he still helped Shane's mom with abused kids. So sweet.

I cant wait for the next book to come out.

DeLeon does it again, another great mystery!

So many clever twists with subtle clues that must be carefully analyzed by the reader/listener. Of course you still get surprised by the ending. This is a must have to complete the series.
Narration was very good but personally I would liked it to have been a dual narrative with male and female voices respectively.
A small quirk of mine,
Regardless Julie McKay once again performed an excellent audio work.
