In a city where faith is bought and sold as easily as whiskey, nothing stays sacred for long.
Private investigator Frank Mercer is called to track down Father Malone, a priest with a taste for bourbon and bad bets. What begins as a routine debt collection spirals into something far darker, a stolen relic, a mob war simmering in the shadows, and a woman in red whose smile hides more than secrets.
When the Halo of Saint Lucius surfaces, the lines between faith and sin blur, leaving Mercer caught between rival families, bullets, and betrayal. Every choice takes another piece of his soul, and every lie brings him closer to the truth no one wants uncovered.
In New Alderidge, redemption is just another gamble-and the house always wins.
Blood and Benediction is a hard-boiled noir tale of faith, corruption, and the cost of survival. Fans of Chandler, Hammett, and classic pulp detective fiction will find themselves right at home in Mercer's smoke-filled office... if they dare step inside.
