Nick Barrett Mysteries

When a girl from the wrong side of Charleston tries to sell a seventeenth-century painting stolen thirty years before, Nick Barrett is asked to look into the mystery. His reluctant investigation collides with a woman desperate to free herself and her child from a cult. As the web of deceit widens, Nick unearths a secret hidden beneath the surface of Charleston's high society.

The apparent suicide of a young cadet at the Citadel leads Nick Barrett back two decades to the disappearance of a South Carolina beauty pageant queen. Beneath the glittering exterior of the elite of Charleston lies a century-old conspiracy that will endanger Nick's life and the people he loves most. Ironically, it's the sinister past that holds lessons about the strength and importance of faith.
