Stirring Up Strife A Hope Street Church Mystery by Jennifer Stanley ISBN: 9780312376857 $7.99 Paperback Minotaur Books Thou shalt not snoop without a clue--or a prayer Welcome to the Hope Street Church where good folks study The Good Book, but everyone loves a good mystery! Cooper Lee can repair a copy machine--but can she repair her life? That’s one of the many big questions drawing this newly single Richmond girl to Sunrise Bible Study at the Hope Street Church. Cooper hasn’t attended church in ages, but after getting dumped by her long-time boyfriend and moving in with her family, she could use some new friends and a new outlook on life. Happily, the members of the Bible group are anything but cookie-cutter, which suits Cooper just fine. There’s a blind folk artist, a playboy meteorologist, an investment banker with a sweet tooth, an ambitious real estate agent, and a cute, shy Web designer who just might be “the one” for Cooper. But the church member who invited Cooper to join this group--an office worker who got her wedding ring stuck in a copier--is something else altogether: She’s dead, and her husband is suspected of murder. The Sunrise gang jumps into action, vowing to solve this unholy mess--with God’s guidance--and Cooper’s snooping. This isn’t your Grandmother’s Sunday School Class. “Jennifer Stanley’s engaging new series makes your attendance at Hope Street Church mandatory.”--Emilie Richards, author of the Ministry is Murder mystery series
