Story[edit]
After the shocking death of a small-town reverend, insurance investigator Leo Hobbins Bill Sage arrives at Emmaus Holy and interviews the church secretary, Darlene Halsey Ismenia Mendes. She last saw the reverend alive on Saturday evening, preparing for a sunrise service, and discovered the reverend's body the following day, drowned under a 50-pound rock in the baptismal pool.
When Darlene has Hobbins alone, she confides that she pressed the insurance company to investigate—claiming it was an act of desperation after the local authorities refused to listen to her. She believes it was a murder. And to complicate matters and potentially identify her as a suspect, Darlene was named the sole beneficiary of the reverend's insurance policy.
Against his better judgment and his employer's orders to avoid a payout, Hobbins agrees to help Darlene find the actual cause of the reverend's death. Hobbins proceeds to interview all the congregation members, sifting through a web of red herrings and self-serving lies. Over the course of 24 hours, Hobbins interviews six suspects and seeks to solve the case overflowing with duplicity, greed, drugs, and corruption.
