Description

In a Manhattan brownstone that has long served as a manse for him and his predecessors, the Rev. Seth Ludington discovers the bones of an infant...49 years dead. With his sidekick, the acid-tonged Harriet van der Berg, Ludington struggles to resolve the mystery of the bones long hidden in the ash pit of his home while trying to outrun a dark secret from his past. The answers he discovers set Ludington onto an ominous path from which he cannot return, forcing him to explore haunting questions of forgiveness and time.

Critical Reviews

"A minister uncovers an old secret in the basement of the manse revealing a nefarious past within the church as well as his own personal struggles. M.M. Lindvall has penned a true mystery mixing the spiritual, the criminal, and modern technology inspired by my own hunt for the Golden State Killer." - Paul Holes, Former Cold Case Detective Contra Costa County and author of NYT Best Seller Unmasked: My Life Solving America's Cold Cases


"M.M. Lindvall, a father-daughter writing duo, has cracked the code for a great mystery novel. This first in the Ludington-van der Berg series not only offers up fascinating characters and a fast-paced plot, but plumbs profound moral and spiritual issues that stay with you long after you've finished the last page. Can't wait to read the next one." - Katie Couric


"Bones in the pastor's cellar. Secrets and sin. The Reverend Seth Ludington tugs at a set of mysterious threads that entangle his predecessors in the Old Stone Church pulpit and touch on his won shadowed past. In Ashes to Ashes, M. M. Lindvall has penned a gripping whodunit that gives fresh perspective on the human need for confession and grace." - Scott Black Johnston, Senior Minister of the Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church in New York City and author of Elusive Grace
