Synposis (from the publisher): How do you make God laugh? Tell Him you’ve got a plan.
That’s what Sister Mary Helen reminds herself when she sets out to start a new life—as a volunteer in a women’s homeless shelter. A savvy octogenarian with an adventurous streak, Mary Helen is no stranger to the shady side of San Francisco’s hilly streets.
So when a young resident at the Refuge shelter is found dead, Mary Helen makes it her business to solve the murder. Soon this lady of the Order gets herself into a holy mess involving corrupt local politicians, a prostitution ring, and a tangled web of private-eyes, police officers, and the ‘refugees’ themselves. Mary Helen calls upon her beloved sisters at St. Francis College for salvation, but it’s going to take a lot of prayers to protect Mary Helen from the dangerous characters—and shocking confessions—that come in her wake...
