Publisher's summary

Someone stands to gain millions of dollars from a hunter’s accidental death . . . unless that death wasn’t an accident.

Matt and Elena Thompson present the picture of perfection. But their enviable life isn’t all it seems. Their marriage is on the rocks, and financial disaster looms. Then Matt is killed in a hunting accident, and the questions and accusations begin to mount.

Attorney Liz Acosta, newly arrived in the mountains of north Georgia after graduating from law school, plans to get some job experience on her resume before returning home to seek a position with a big-time firm. Intellectual pastor Connor Grantham isn’t sure that shepherding a rural congregation is what he ultimately wants to do with his life. Drawn to philosophy, theology, and nature, he’s beginning to feel more at home in north Georgia—especially after he meets the brilliant and energetic Liz.

While Liz and Connor spend more time with each other and discover just how compatible two people from wildly different backgrounds can be, they’re also being drawn into the shadowy world of Matt and Elena Thompson. As the couple’s marriage counselor, Connor finds himself in the middle of their explosive arguments. As Elena’s attorney, Liz is caught in the tailspin created by Matt’s death.

Together, Connor and Liz attempt to solve the mystery of what really happened to Matt. If his death is ruled an accident, then the double indemnity clause in his life insurance would go into effect, essentially doubling the payout. But as Liz sorts through the legal paperwork of who stands to gain an immense sum of money from Matt’s death, Connor is accused of the unthinkable with much more at stake than millions of dollars.

• Contemporary Christian legal drama
• Perfect for fans of John Grisham

Great book!

I enjoyed the book so much, I listened to it a second time. There are always little nuggets along the way I missed the first time.

A Bit Slow

This story in my opinion was a bit slow. One always en noted Robert Whitlows books but this one to me anyway had a hard time getting going. There may have been too many characters for the plot. I didn’t care a lot for the narrator.

Awesome story. Great character development, Builds faith

The story held my attention once it got past the layout of the characters. Riveting, informative, faith building.

Sweet!

As a fan of thrillers/mysteries/police procedurals, and often very intense plots, this book/story was still enjoyable. It read/sounded like a Hallmark holiday movie/story, which I occasionally watch.

Great storyline

Robert Whitlow is one of my favorites! I love how he helps lead everything to God!

Different, Varied Plot Lines, I loved it!

This book had it all: legal thriller, small town life, crime, jealousy, faith & food! Lol! I’m glad our book club chose it. Not sure I would have chosen it, but I enjoyed the read, and found myself thinking about it when I wasn’t listening. The Audible version was great!

Great Story

A wonderful, intriguing, interesting and captivating story. I can highly recommend this book. Nothing is sure until the end.

A really good mystery

I wasn’t sure until the very end “who dunnit” loved the relationships in this book as well. Can’t wait to read another of this author’s books.

Growing Relationship to a deeper depth with Jesus

What unexpected twists and turn, fantastic story, well worth listening to. There is nothing better on earth than a relationship with Jesus

Great story with positive message

Refreshing to listen to a book with great story with no bad language and a positive message
