      LET US PREY An impending papal visit is wreaking havoc in Detroit. Rumors run rampant that the pope comes bearing a pronouncement on birth control that will rock devout Catholics to the very foundations of their faith, and Father Koesler can't help but get caught up in the religious controversy. But soon he'll be swept into the secular--and dangerous--business of protecting the pontiff's life. For among the throng of pilgrims lurks a host of predators: a devout man hopelessly twisted by grief, a washed-up reporter desperate to make headlines, and a faceless assassin within the pope's inner circle--all hell-bent on silencing His Holiness. "GRIPPING, SUSPENSEFUL . . . Kienzle continues to provide a superior brand of mystery." --Booklist "CRAFTILY PLOTTED." --Publishers Weekly

      A rabbi, a nun, a monk, and an Episcopal priest -- all mystery writers -- have been invited to Marygrove College to speak at a mystery writers' conference. Although different in denomination, they all have one thing in they loathe the featured speaker, sleazy televangelist Reverend Klaus Krieg. When murder smites the Reverend, the hateful faithful are the prime suspects. Father Koesler throws himself into the investigation and discovers that although being wrong isn't a sin, it could be murder . . .

    • Assault with Intent

      Four rather clumsy assassins stalk the seminaries of Detroit. So far only luck stopped them from killing a priest. But time is running short, and murder lies within their vicious grasp. Who's behind this quarter of killers? An angry seminarian? A fanatical leader of an arch-conservative Catholic society? Another priest? Keen-witted Father Koesler, clerical sleuth extraordinaire, had better find the answer soon. Because he's next on the killers' list.
