A Perfect Grave — Rick Mofina

The murder of Sister Anne, a beloved Seattle nun, takes Seattle Mirror crime reporter Jason Wade into the hidden past of an order of nuns, and leads to an unlikely suspect. In his relentless pursuit of the story, Jason, a troubled loner from the wrong side of the tracks, also unearths the secret that has tormented his ex-cop father for decades, culminating in a life and death struggle against the clock. With time running out, they must battle the odds and confront and a terrible truth no one can face.
