Deadly Blessings — Julie A. Hyzy

LAST RITES

In short order, Chicago TV news researcher Alex St. James loses her boyfriend, loses a lead on her real parents and is taken off the biggest story of her career. But when her subject is found floating in the river, Alex sets out to learn the truth behind the young Polish immigrant's death, no matter how long it takes. And the fact that Milla was pregnant by a Catholic priest leads Alex straight to another young refugee in trouble and another brutal murder.

Now it's only by going undercover and risking her job that Alex can suss out the innocent from the sinners. But surviving her station's office politics and untrustworthy coworkers is nothing compared to exposing a lethally corrupt conspiracy. Or staying ahead of a killer waiting to deliver her to an unholy end…
