When an elderly priest is murdered, the killer searches the victim so roughly that his already ragged cassock is torn in the process. What was the killer looking for? And what had a dying woman confided to the priest on her deathbed only hours earlier? Mark Easterbrook and his sidekick Ginger Corrigan are determined to find out. Maybe the three women who run The Pale Horse public house, and who are rumored to practice the 147;Dark Arts,148; can provide some answers?
When a murdered priest is found with a seemingly unrelated list of names in his pocket, Mark Easterbrook must look for a connection, and the killer responsible for the cold-blooded murder.
