Publisher's Synopsis
Pratt has fallen upon strange times. Father Johnstone, whoâs served at the helm for the past thirty years, has begun to lose his flock. He dispenses poor marital advice and indulges in the company of lusting widows, both of which he can hardly remember doing. The pastor has never felt more unlike himself, and Madeline Paigeâthe townâs newest residentâbelieves she knows the reason. What she reveals will compromise everything Father Johnstone has ever known. Meanwhile, two men beyond Prattâs county lines administer their own brand of faith. Billy Burke, the truck-stop preacher, tours the Bible Belt advising blue-collar workers how to properly assault a meth-hooker and the best way to protest gay nightclubs. Heâs destined to meet a man thatâs been operating out of Las Vegas under many different names, experimenting on a myriad of escorts using Christian lingerie, pious roleplay, and Biblical paraphernalia. Together, they will push the threshold, and the town of Pratt will serve as the battleground for when faiths clash and lives hang in the balance.
