description: You're a new minister and your best friend is accused of murder. How can you not help? In this spiritual, multi-cultural murder mystery, an attractive reverend solves a crime and finds romance against the backdrop of a lush Caribbean island. At 31, Rumi was inexperienced at saving souls but good at solving crimes. Starting her first Stateside church assignment, Rumi misses the action of her previous profession: detective. So when Emily, her dearest childhood friend, is accused of murder, Rumi returns to Saman where the mystery unfolds. Four other suspects emerge: Rumi's mother, several lifelong friends, and a handsome and talented Arawak chef who makes her heart sing. Balancing her spiritual calling with her romantic entanglements, Rumi knows that someone close to her is a murderer. In a thrilling finale, two comrades help Rumi confront the killer, Lorena, a Korean on the lam, and Sarah, a Black FBI agent.
