title: Blood Sacrifice (John Jordan Novels)
author:  Michael Lister 
description: This fifth book featuring prison chaplain (and former cop) John Jordan has an exorcism turned murder at the heart of its complex story. Jordans marriage has fallen apart for the second time, prompting him to seek counseling at St. Anns, an abbey in bucolic Gainesville, Florida, best known for being the home of the University of Florida Gators. Lister never mentions the college; instead, he shows us the rapidly dwindling, unspoiled Florida wilderness. The company that owns the abbey, an old abandoned paper mill nearby, and all the surrounding land wants to develop the property. An oversexed and deeply troubled young woman is murdered at the abbey, and the priest performing the exorcism is the chief suspect. Her cousin is the small-town cop investigating, and he asks Jordan for help. Intriguing characters populate the small town, and their relationships are integral to the mystery, as one red herring after another become stumbling blocks to a conclusion. Lister creates a dark and complex combination of religious and environmental mystery that should appeal to fans of Margaret Coel and Julia Spencer-Fleming. --Stacy Alesi
