Mortal Sin

Park Square. Mass Ave. The Combat Zone. All home
to Boston’s sex trade. Home also to runaways and lost
souls, home to high rollers and politicians looking for
action they can’t find anywhere else. It is home, too, for
Father Clancy Donovan, who spends his time here trying to
get young girls off the street. Bone weary and frustrated, he
has lost the joy in his life and has no idea how to get it back.

Divorced three times and not yet thirty-five, Sarah Connolly
is trying hard to make a new start when life throws her a
curve. Kit, her fifteen-year-old niece, has run away from
home, and Sarah will need every ounce of her stubbornness
and determination to track her down. Suspecting Kit has
disappeared into the Combat Zone, and with no one else to
turn to, Sarah appeals to Clancy for help.

The unlikely pair team up to find Kit, but in the process find
something else-something powerful, something unexpected
and something that will shake them to their core.
