A Corpse in the Chapel – Book 3 of The First Ladies Club series

A teenager’s romantic fantasies lead to tragedy and her killer walks away. The young girl’s bones, hidden for decades in the deep woods, cry out for justice.

A life cut short, a cowardly killer and a middle-aged flower child are stirred together into a tasty stew of wild mushrooms, herbs, vanity and deceit in award-winning author, J. B. Hawker’s latest book.

Will pastor’s wife, Judy Falls, uncover more than a new vegan recipe when she goes hunting for natural ingredients to tempt her husband’s taste buds? Many lives will be changed forever in the small seaside community of Bannoch, Oregon, as the result of one day’s misadventure. The questions remain, “Can the killer be found and brought to justice? Will the young victim finally rest in peace?”
