Book Description
Sometimes wolves pray in sheep's clothing The perfect hair product
is out there for girls with uncontrollably frizzy curls. So is the
perfect piece of chocolate. So is the perfect man. And so is a good,
warm, fuzzy, inspirational lead story. Jonna Lightfoot McLaughlin,
religion reporter for the Denver Dispatch knows, in her heart, all
this to be true. She just can't find proof. For any of it. Then one
day, a series of mysterious messages appear on her voicemail and she
is thrown headlong into a story that may drastically affect her
career, and, if she's not careful, her life. Clues from untraceable
sources collide with duplicitous ministers, ambiguous monks, and one
exceptionally good-looking community center director. With the help
of her supportive editor, her savvy, fellow chocoholic colleague and
the protection of her big brother, she might break the biggest story
of the year and find some of that inspiration after all.

Book Bargains Review

 |
A fun, fast paced tale about the world of the cults, A Mile From
Sunday makes the point that not all members of the flock are docile
sheep. Some are wolves, ready to prey on the unsuspecting. There is
enough suspense to keep you on your toes and when you are through, you
will be wishing the 2nd book (this was book one in the Lightfoot Series)
was available! A great read!
