My wife died in my arms, the victim of a nameless killer's bullet. I should have died with her. But God had other plans for me.
Fifteen years later, I'm back where it all happened. I just want to forget, but the past won't leave me alone.
Now, I'm asking a woman who I left broken-hearted twenty years before to catch my wife's killer.
I'm Father Tom Greer, a Catholic priest, and I'm playing with fire.
