John Jordan Mysteries: Flesh and Blood (John Jordan Mysteries, #3) (ePub)

The Florida Book Review says that "Vintage Michael Lister is poetic prose, exquisitely set scenes, characters who are damaged and faulty"

˃˃˃ FLESH AND BLOOD John Jordan book 3 from multi-award-winning and New York Times bestselling author Michael Lister

Koryta says, "If you like crime writing with depth, suspense, and sterling prose, you should be reading Michael Lister."

John Jordan is back—investigating eternal mysteries woven into the fabric of everyday life. Within the confines of seemingly ordinary cases, John explores the ineffable and inexplicable, the profoundly mysterious within the mundane.

In this diverse collection of cases, John investigates the Shroud of Turin, a pregnant virgin, a daring prison break, a Hurricane Katrina orphan who might just be the Second Coming, a desperate woman who sleeps with one too many men, a bloody body on the rec yard, a mystery that turns on a single observation, and a murder in which John himself is the prime suspect—all this as he deals with depression and battles alcoholism.

These stories are puzzles, whodunits, and enigmas, but they are much more. John Jordan doesn't just solve crime, he investigates the hidden heart of humanity and the mysterious world in which we live. Here are temporal answers and eternal questions, and at the center of it all, a conflicted man of faith and doubt, flawed, but faithful, who ministers mercy even as he thirsts for justice.

If you love exciting, gritty, thoughtful mysteries, don't miss Michael Lister's FLESH AND BLOOD.

Listen to what bestselling author of religious and historical mysteries, Margaret Coel, says about Michael Lister and FLESH AND BLOOD.

"Mystery and magic fill the stories of Flesh and Blood. They are in the richness of the language, the remarkable insights, the deft details, and the brilliant plotting. Michael Lister's stories do what the best of stories do: they startle and unsettle us and, in the process expand our view of reality. Most of all, they touch us, perhaps even with God's grace. John Jordan is a superb detective, an ex-cop and prison chaplain, he is part Sherlock Holmes and part Father Brown, combining Holmes' powers of observation and Brown's openness to the fundamental mysteries at the heart of life."
