  A priest must investigate a fellow man of the cloth—and claims of miraculous healing among his congregation—in this novel of faith and friendship.  
   
   
   
  As an administrator for the Diocese of St. Paul, Peter Whitmore is asked to investigate a priest who is rumored to perform miracles. But the priest in question, Jim Marbury, is no stranger to Whitmore. He is an old friend from seminary, and a spiritual mentor whom Whitmore has not seen in more than twenty years.  
   
  Always somewhat unconventional, Marbury is now mute, speaking only in sign language. He claims that his voice was stolen by God on a trip through western Pennsylvania. On that same journey, in a snowstorm that nobody can verify, Marbury encountered a terrible car accident and a family who changed his life irrevocably. 
   
  Marbury suddenly finds himself in a world where the mystical is not in a book but alive and breathing. And Whitmore must decide for himself which events are really the hand of God and which are the delusions of a man gone mad.

  Pet sitter Daphne Templeton has a soft spot for every stray and misfit who wanders into the quaint, lakeside village of Sylvan Creek. But even Daphne doesn't like arrogant, womanizing Steve Beamus, the controversial owner of Blue Ribbon K-9 Academy. When Steve turns up dead during a dog agility trial, Daphne can think of a long list of people with motives for homicide, and so can the police. Unfortunately, at the top of the list is Daphne's sister, Piper—Steve's latest wronged girlfriend. 
  Certain that Piper is innocent, in spite of mounting evidence to the contrary, Daphne sets out to clear her sister's name—and find Axis, Steve's prize-winning chocolate Labrador, who went missing the night of Steve's death. Aided by Socrates, her taciturn basset hound, and a hyperactive one-eared Chihuahua named Artie, Daphne quickly runs afoul of Detective Jonathan Black, a handsome and enigmatic newcomer to town, who has no appreciation for Daphne's unorthodox sleuthing. 
  Can a free-spirited pet sitter, armed only with a PhD in philosophy and her two incompatible dogs, find the real killer before she becomes the next victim?
