The Sins of Father Riley - Paperback

Father Thomas Riley is a parish priest who is beloved by many. He is respected for his ability to help those who have suffered the loss of a loved one. Unfortunately, Father Riley gets too close to some of the females in his grief counseling groups. When one of the women in the group is found murdered, Father Riley becomes the chief suspect. Despite all the good things he is hearing, Detective Wilcox believes that Father Riley has not only betrayed his vow of celibacy, but in order to cover it up, has committed a murder. When Father Riley is sent to the Vatican on a special assignment, Wilcox is only further convinced of his guilt. At first, Father Riley is concerned about his vocation, as a woman threatens to tell the bishop about their affair. When she is found dead, he is more concerned about a life behind bars, or worse.
