Reverend Randollph and the Wages of Sin pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載 2024
Joining such best-selling clerical
detectives as Harry Kemelman s
Rabbi Small and G. K. Chesterton s
Father Brown is the Reverend C. P.
Randollph, a Protestant minister
whose talents outstrip merely tend-
ing his flock.
A handsome, liberal bachelor with a
pro-football past, the Reverend Ran-
dollph expected problems when he
became interim pastor at the Church
of the Good Shepherd. But a murder
in the church choir room, leaving a
nude victim, demanded more than
clerical judgment. Nor could Ran-
dollph find support in the dead wom- an s identity.Marianne Reedman was
the wife of a member of the Board of
Trustees who had jnst vanished with
ten million dollars of the church s
money.
A detective who believes only in
"facts," plus an attractive newswoman
always ready to aid a bachelor in dis-
tress, helps Randotlph search for clues
--including a set of secret diaries that
reveal Marianne s nineteen affairs!
Was her final unnamed lover the mur-
derer as Lieutenant Casey believes?
Randollph doesn t think so--and, ap-
plying the tenets of a stern Calvinist
doctrine, discovers a killer too close to
the vestry for comfort.
CHARLES MERRILL SMITH, D.D., de-
scribes himself as "a card-carrying
clergyman of the United Methodist
Church, who retired at the age of fifty
to write." ttis earlier books include
the religious satires How to Become a
Bishop Without Being Religious,
When ~he Saints Go Marching "Out
and The Pearly Gates Syndicate. He
is married and has two children. REV-
EREND RANDOLLPH AND THE WAGES OF
SIN is his first novel.
