  • Jed
  • Sloane,
  • the
  • new
  • preacher
  • in
  • town,
  • knew
  • something
  • about
  • everyone
  • in
  • the
  • small
  • town
  • of
  • Cherryton,
  • Washington,
  • except
  • his
  • secretary
  • Kate
  • Standish.
  • Kate
  • preferred
  • it
  • that
  • way.
  • She’d
  • changed
  • her
  • life
  • three
  • years
  • ago,
  • with
  • the
  • help
  • of
  • the
  • old
  • preacher
  • and
  • Olivia
  • Thornberry.
  • She’d
  • appreciated
  • starting
  • out
  • clean
  • with
  • Jed.
  • She
  • didn't
  • want
  • him
  • to
  • know
  • about
  • her
  • past.
  • But
  • what
  • she
  • preferred
  • didn't
  • matter
  • after
  • Olivia
  • approached
  • Jed
  • to
  • investigate
  • some
  • small
  • thefts
  • she
  • believed
  • were
  • occurring
  • in
  • her
  • house.
  • Simple
  • theft
  • turned
  • into
  • murder
  • when
  • Kate
  • and
  • Jed
  • arrived
  • at
  • the
  • Manor,
  • Olivia’s
  • home
  • and
  • found
  • her
  • dead
  • in
  • her
  • parlor.
  • Jed
  • knew
  • that
  • Olivia
  • had
  • been
  • poisoned.
  • Feeling
  • as
  • if
  • he'd
  • failed
  • Olivia,
  • Jed
  • promises
  • himself
  • he
  • will
  • solve
  • this
  • murder,
  • no
  • matter
  • who
  • is
  • guilty.
  • He
  • doesn't
  • want
  • to
  • believe
  • it's
  • Kate
  • even
  • though
  • she's
  • his
  • best
  • suspect.
  • Unwittingly,
  • Olivia
  • has
  • plunged
  • Jed
  • back
  • into
  • the
  • suspicion
  • and
  • doubt
  • he'd
  • hoped
  • to
  • leave
  • behind
  • when
  • he
  • came
  • to
  • Cherryton.
  • Would
  • he
  • have
  • a
  • second
  • chance
  • to
  • start
  • over
  • again
  • once
  • he
  • solved
  • the
  • mystery
  • of
  • Olivia's death?
