The Measuring Line

By Catherine Park

Old Testament-Style Justice, in Contemporary America. A legal thriller with supernatural elements, and written in a witty, engaging style, THE MEASURING LINE introduces an entertaining cast of characters who have chosen to serve either God or the devil, with eternal consequences. In an unnamed city on the East Coast, Camden & Burke Realtors has perpetrated the largest real estate scam in state history. Lawsuits fail to obtain justice for the victims when Camden & Burke turn to bribery and murder. Corrupt members of the judiciary and police compound the atmosphere of hopelessness, until God Himself appears on the scene to reverse the momentum in supernatural ways. With the sudden appearance of the Almighty, one of the principal villains is forced to reexamine his life. His crisis of conscience forces a climactic confrontation with Camden & Burke that will leave readers breathless. THE MEASURING LINE is the unforgettable first novel by Catherine Park, a lawyer and Iowa Writer's Workshop alum. Ms. Park was awarded a James Michener-Paul Engle Fellowship. Ms. Park plans several more books in THE MEASURING LINE series.
