The Zarahemla Vision / Gary Stewart

Salt Lake City private eye Gabe Utley’s cousin disappears, shortly after claiming that a “revelation” has prompted him to kidnap Wilford Richards, the ailing president of the Mormon church. Which is odd, since the Church announces Richards’ death, schedules his funeral, and names his successor, a California businessman with a shady background. Is Richards a hostage… or is he dead? And if he’s dead, why can Utley find anyone who has seen the corpse? Utley’s dogged investigation forces him to confront his own complex relationship with the faith and pulls him into a deadly whirlwind of corruption, lies and murder.
