Christian cozy mystery suspense

Ablazing Grace

by Wendy Heuvel

Book 2 of the Faith and Foils series

Cassie Bridgestone's comfortable Banford routine is shattered when a deliberate explosion kills a woman and leaves Cassie injured. Suspicion settles on someone she believes has been blamed too quickly, prompting another investigation among neighbors who may be concealing dangerous motives. With her cat, church community, and the bookstore owner next door anchoring her recovery, Cassie searches for the truth while the bomber turns attention toward her. Warmly communal but genuinely perilous, this clean cozy mystery suits readers who enjoy village shops, recurring amateur sleuths, supportive friendships, and cases where clearing an innocent person means confronting a killer who has already struck once.
