From an acclaimed author of books for young people comes this outstanding book in what promises to be a great mystery series. Linda Wallheim, the wife of a Mormon bishop, finds herself donning gumshoes when a respected church member mysteriously vanishes, then finds herself investigating yet another unrelated disappearance. The book not only deals with the struggle between the liberal and conservative wings of the LDS church but also the clash between men and women in the church (and, in turn, that of traditional and modern women), as well as overbearing grandparents who seem to think they know better for their grandchildren - and parents who don't always live up to their proper roles as nurturers. Harrison weaves an impressive tale, particularly for "non-members" who have wanted an insider's view of what it's like to live in Mormon country. Followed by "His Right Hand". Can't wait for part three of the series.
