A tattooed nun who moonlights at a detective agency feels she is called on by god to find the killer after discovering a dead priest in the second novel of the series following Scorched Grace. 100,000 first printing. - Perseus Publishing
A New York Times Best Crime Novel of 2024
Winner of Publishing Triangleâs Joseph Hansen Award for LGBTQ+ Crime Writing
Sister Holiday is back with a newly minted PI apprentice certificate, a twisty mystery to solve, and something to prove in this fast-paced, blistering follow-up to Scorched Grace.
Tattooed from her neck to her toes and sporting a gold tooth as sharp as her wisecracks, Sister Holiday struggles to stay on the righteous path. Never one to make things easy for herself, sheâs committed to taking her permanent vows with the Sisters of the Sublime Blood and joining former fire inspector Magnolia Riveauxâs latest venture, Redemption Detective Agencyâboth in service of satisfying her eternal quest for answers.
When Sister Holiday and Riveaux set out to bust a philandering husband, they instead find the body of a priest floating in the swollen Mississippi River, and with it, Redemptionâs next case. Itâs significantly more gruesome than their origÂinal mission, but Sister Holiday feels called on by God to hunt down the murderer and keep her community safe.
As a torrential rainstorm drowns New Orleans for three harrowing days over Easter weekend, Sister Holiday and Riveaux follow the clues. With the stakes rising alongside the relentless floodwaters, our favorite punk nun-sleuth throws herself into the deep end yet again.
A lacerating and lyrical plunge into obsession, deception, and the questions that hold us captive, Blessed Water is a lights-out mystery that will leave you breathless. - Random House, Inc.
