FATHER MURPHY

Not for the fainthearted, this lurid tale begins with the execution-style murder of a saintly Catholic priest and the kidnapping of his adopted, seven-year-old daughter. Swearing before God to rescue the girl and bring his uncle's killer to justice, skeptical and embittered Detective Lawrence Corliss soon finds himself forced by circumstances into an uneasy and implausible alliance with a mysterious new ally, the dark and enigmatic Father Murphy.

While some people may see this seminal work of fiction as nothing more than the highly offensive literary equivalent of a botched abortion, open-minded and progressive freethinkers will find controversial author Jason L. Gooding's foray into the world of written-word relevance (and obvious cry for help) to be an excitement-filled, action-packed adventure for the whole family to enjoy.

Shamelessly sacrilegious, irreverently witty, highly stylized, and laden with unholy imagery, FATHER MURPHY is a kooky, madcap, little romp that will make you hate yourself for loving it and leave you feeling like you were just given a sensual, full-body, "Don't tell Mommy" massage by your drunken step-dad.
