About the Book

In this Christian cozy mystery, four people are trying to follow God’s guidance in their lives. The scene is a small city (Springton) in southern Michigan near Lake Michigan, in a high school and the local hospital. The big problem, as we learn right away, is Joe, the school’s football coach. If only he weren’t so domineering, conceited, and narcissistic, life would be good. But someone finally has had enough and gets rid of him. Then the mystery must be solved. There are four main characters: Emily, an English teacher; Franklin, her husband and assistant principal in the freshman wing; Emily’s son Tom who is going to college at Western Michigan University but volunteers at the local hospital on the weekends; and Emily’s best friend Pat, who also teaches English. The story is told from the perspective of each of these four people, one chapter at a time. They each go through important life issues as they also try to solve the mystery of Joe’s death.
