"A young woman returns to her rural Minnesota hometown\, where a ra dical evangelical pastor has poisoned everyone's minds--and may be coverin g up a murder. After Del Walker fled her small hometown and its cult-like church\, she vowed to never return. The man she loved\, Lars\, left her to marry the local golden girl Eve\, and their romance is now the focus of E ve's viral blog espousing the pastor's conservative philosophy about women and marriage. But six years later\, Lars is suddenly killed\, and she's c onvinced it couldn't have been an accident. When Del returns to her hometo wn for the funeral\, she discovers the now mega-church--and the insidious\ , patriarchal teachings of Pastor Rick Franklin--has grown not only in siz e but in influence. Eve was clearly discontent in her marriage\, despite t he carefully constructed "Noble Wife" positivity of her blog posts\, and D el knows better than anyone just how far she will go to get what she wants . Del is determined to cut through the church's lies and corruption to fin d out who killed Lars--even if it means confronting the religious trauma s he's spent years trying to bury." -- Provided by publisher.
