About this listen

Detective Abish “Abbie” Taylor returned to the mountain town of Pleasant View, Utah, hoping for a quiet life. But that hope dissipates like a dream when she wakes up to an unsettling phone call. Arriving at the scene of a fatal car accident, she discovers that the victim was one of the most beloved leaders of the Church - and an old family friend.

Abbie is skeptical when her father insists the death was not an accident, but in an attempt to patch up their relationship, she takes a few days off from her job as the sole detective in the police department and heads to Colonia Juárez, a former LDS colony in Mexico. There, she uncovers a plan hearkening back to the Church’s history of polygamy. But Abbie knows too well that bringing secrets to light can be deadly. Is that why her father’s friend died? Abbie realizes with a jolt that her investigation could cost her father his job and possibly get him excommunicated.

Who is the murderous mastermind of this secret plot? Time is running out for Abbie to save her father’s position - and her own life - as dark forces close in, and the outlook for Pleasant View turns decidedly unpleasant.
