An obliging and magnificently written mystery

Ten years ago Matthew Jade spent time in Coffin County Jail. He'd had a few drinks at a party, and lost control of his car on an ice-covered road. An accident that cost the live of his beloved young wife. From a one-night-per-week visitation program as a layman, Matt rose to become the jail's full-time chaplain, ministering to the lost and broken men held incarcerated there. When three inmates mysteriously die, Matt seeks to discover the killer. To do so, he must face his terrible memories, drug addicts, alcoholics, inmates and jailers, lawyers and judges. The Heart Of Matthew Jade is an obliging and magnificently written mystery which is as entertaining as it is ultimately inspiring.
