description: In this sequel to Jessie in the Smokies, Jessie returns to life as a country music singer in Nashville, Tennessee, often called "the Vatican City of America" because of its numerous religious headquarters. Propelled into the spotlight by her plaintive voice and original songs, she issues a compelling call to righteousness and honesty on the religious scene. But this is soon met by staunch resistance from a number of highly placed church leaders. And when some of those leaders turn out to be underworld figures as well, Jessie's death is a foregone conclusion. She is killed during a Good Friday concert at the Grand Ole Opry. But, as it is with Jesus in the Gospel stories, this isn't the end of the narrative, for Jessie keeps a date for an extraordinary interview with a persistent reporter from one of Nashville's newspapers, and the entire city is electrified at the story of her return.
