The Confession

When Father Henry McGrath hears a confession that sends a cold chill throughout his body, he's unsure what to do. To divulge the private confession would violate holy canon law. When he refuses to go to the police, people begin to die, and the priest becomes the prime suspect.

Elizabeth Monroe, a college professor who teaches forensic psychology, doesn't believe the elder priest fits the killer's profile. Elizabeth discovers a frightening thread woven within each killing - a thread that began 30 years ago. To stop the murders, she has to find where the seed of evil was first planted. Because the roots are penetrating deep within a small Mississippi town and they're spreading dangerously close to Elizabeth.
