Reporter Beth Wright is hot on the trail of a story that could expose an ugly scandal at the St. Clair Children's Home. But there's another hunter on the scene, someone who wants to make sure the story never sees print - and who isn't averse to lethal means, either. Nick Hutchins, a social worker, has his own uneasy hunches about the children's home, which are confirmed by Beth's investigation, a high-speed attempt on her life, and finally the startling confessions of an intruder. An appalling picture emerges of helpless children under the sway of a modern-day Fagin. There's one person who can save the children: Beth herself. But using the key could cost her reputation - or her life. One of the Sun Coast Chronicles, Presumption of Guilt is a gripping portrayal of the depths of human evil, the soul-twisting influence of lies, and the far-reaching freedom of God's mercy and grace.

FANABERIE STARSZEJ PANI, GBUROWATY TAKSÓWKARZ I ZAPRACOWANA PRAWNICZKA. CZY Z TEGO UKŁADU WYNIKNIE COŚ DOBREGO? Ostatnia rzecz, jakiej życzy sobie taksówkarz Finn Parrish, to utknąć na cały dzień w klinice z cierpiącą na demencję staruszką na wózku. Jednak kobieta przypomina mu matkę, którą pod koniec życia poważnie zawiódł. Poniekąd z poczucia winy mężczyzna godzi się na kolejne szalone pomysły starszej pani, zastanawiając się, czy nie działa ona pod wpływem choroby... I dlaczego jej rodzina się nią nie zajmuje.

A dark shadow of fear has fallen over Newpointe, Louisiana. First one, then another of the town firemen's wives has been murdered, and a third has barely escaped an attempt on her life. Incredible as it seems, a serial killer is stalking this sleepy little southern community. And Mark Branning's wife may be next on the list.

Book four in the Newpointe 911 series in which a church building burns to the ground, and a young man is found dead of a gunshot wound. The mystery is just being ignited as God uses disaster to bring about his will.

Detective Stan Sheperd lies comatose in the hospital, a victim of arsenic poisoning. The Newpointe police have a suspect: Celia Shepherd, Stan's wife.

Celia is no stranger to such charges. When her first husband died of poisoning, a technicality scuttled the case against her, and Celia got off scot-free. Now it looks like the same old story - only this time, the motive appears plain. But attorney Jill Clark thinks the pieces of the puzzle fit together a bit too neatly.

In the third book in the Newpointe 911, Jill Clark learns the meaning of covenant when she is taken hostage by a suspect in a deadly bombing but isn't convinced he's guilty.
