Gripping literary mystery with powerful storytelling.

Recommended for mystery and history fans interested in Mormonism. The book alternates between a modern murder mystery and a historical account of a woman's fight against polygamy in the Mormon Church. The author weaves these stories together in a masterful way, bringing attention to a lesser-known part of American history. Most readers will appreciate the unique setting and the way the book builds up to a satisfying conclusion.

Description

Jordan returns from California to Utah to visit his mother in jail. As a teenager he was expelled from his family and religious community, a secretive Mormon offshoot sect. Now his father has been found shot dead in front of his computer, and one of his many wives - Jordan's mother - is accused of the crime.Over a century earlier, Ann Eliza Young, the nineteenth wife of Brigham Young, Prophet and Leader of the Mormon Church, tells the sensational story of how her own parents were drawn into plural marriage, and how she herself battled for her freedom and escaped her powerful husband, to lead a crusade to end polygamy in the United States.Bold, shocking and gripping, The 19th Wife expertly weaves together these two narratives: a pageturning literary mystery and an enthralling epic of love and faith.
