ORIGINAL SIN

Samantha Cody thought she was done with trouble when she quit her job as Deputy and watched a dirt ball Sheriff take over Mercer s Corner, but she can t seem to stay away. When Sam s longtime friend and former boxing buddy, Dr. Lucy Wagner, finds her career, and maybe even her life, in jeopardy, Samantha runs to her side. Dr. Lucy Wagner was on top of her game, her practice thriving, and her reputation impeccable. She was the only cardiac surgeon on staff at the Medical Center in small-town Remington, Tennessee, and she just had a new pediatric cardiac unit dedicated to her. When John Scully, the spiritual founder and leader of a local snake- handling church, dies on her operating table, Lucy s success comes to a screeching halt as she begins to have a series of strange fainting spells and nightmares, and her patients begin experiencing violent psychotic breaks. Samantha is forced to lead Lucy on a journey into the past to confront old and powerful forces she never knew existed._,
