The Price of Indulgence

Jackie Muldoon knows how to find a story. She also knows how to make moonshine as good as her murdered father’s.

By day, she’s a cub reporter in Mobile, Alabama. By night, she keeps the family still running and searches for the person who shot her father. Then someone steals a teenage girl’s body from its grave, and Jackie’s newspaper assignment begins to cross paths with a radio preacher she’s been watching for reasons of her own.

The missing dead girl sang for Brother Fred March’s Angels in White. Fred promises salvation over the airwaves, but Jackie has photographs that suggest his private life deserves a closer look. As threats close in and the missing body remains unfound, Jackie follows a trail through Mobile’s newsrooms, back roads and late-night bars.

The truth could cost her the last thing her father left her.
