The Divine Meddler

By Sue LeDoux

Book Overview

After his daughter is found dead, Lou Sklaney murders the man he believes is responsible. Unrepentant, Lou faces the death penalty, only to wake up the morning after his execution, very much alive and locked within the walls of a hidden monastery.

Surrounded by monks and other murderers, Lou vows to escape what he believes is a living hell. What kind of monks have black belts in Krav Maga? Are they truly the spiritual guides the Abbot claims they are? And why do people disappear from the monastery during the night?

He is not the only one with questions. His oldest friend, Rudy Kowalski, is a newspaper reporter who suspects Lou Sklaney wasn't executed. Rudy stops at nothing to find answers, despite putting his life at risk.

Can Lou find redemption and save his friend at the same time?

The Divine Meddler - a refreshing new look at sacrifice and redemption

I loved this read! The beginning chapters lay the groundwork for "the rest of the story". After Lou avenges his daughter's murder, he's sentenced to death by lethal injection. Expecting to wake up in hell, Lou is shocked and furious when he wakens to find himself in St. Dismas monastery, where he must live out the rest of his natural life. LeDoux has written a fascinating story of redemption that's both fresh and new. For me, it was one of the best reads of the year. I believe there is a sequel coming soon - can't wait!
