Pastor Larsen and the Rat

Reverend Martin Luther Larsen-highly regarded, completely ethical, genuine and sincere-has dedicated his life to the pastorate. Now, in the face of the drudgery, church politics and frustration that are the usual professional hazards of the ministry, a dangerous and intriguing complication has slipped into his life: Ange. No one in Larsen's close knit congregations knew of the existence of this woman, the daughter of a parishioner who appeared just in time for her mother's funeral. For Larsen, Ange is more than mysterious. She is alluring, wise and astonishingly intuitive. . . . And then there is the issue of the large rat that seems to be taunting the members of his church.
