From the rear cover

As seen on NBC's "Dateline"

His sin was adultery.

He counseled young couples at a small church in Bainbridge Island, Washington and convinced young women that having sex with him was part of God's plan. But that wasn't the worst of Youth Pastor Nick Hacheney's unspeakable sins. The tragic house fire that ultimately consumed the life of his soft-spoken wife was no act of God

His crime was murder.

What demons drove a highly respected minister to commit the most sinful of crimes? How did five women including Hacheney's own mother-in-law fall prey to his seductions? Combining firsthand confessions, erotically charged emails, and one woman's chilling prophecies, bestselling author Gregg Olsen paints a shocking portrait of a church, a community, and a man of the cloth who turned out to be a wolf in sheep's clothing

Gregg Olsen's books are:

"Searing and brilliant." Ann Rule

"Riveting and deeply disturbing Olsen does a superior job." "Cleveland Plain Dealer""
