Requiem for Moses

Title: Requiem for Moses (Father Koesler Mystery)
Author: William X. Kienzle
Year First Published: 1996
Page Count: 322
Synopsis: BACK FROM THE DEAD

Father Koesler knows he might be on shaky ground when he agrees to hold an unofficial wake for a Jewish man in old St. Joseph's Church. First the "small" ceremony draws a huge and strangely festive crowd, with those closest to the late Dr. Moses Green among the happiest to see him dead. But when Koesler learns the dark details of the good doctor's life, he soon concludes that only a natural death kept Moses Green from becoming a murder victim. Then the dead man stirs in his casket, and all hell breaks loose--bringing a storm of media controversy and a devil of a mystery for Father Koesler. . . .

"As regular as the solstice, Kienzle annually provides a new Catholic whodunit from Detroit, inviting the readers to shut out the rest of the world and spend a few absorbing hours watching his venerable alter ego, Koesler, peel back the layers of a puzzle to plumb the tortured depths of the human soul and elegantly solve a mystery."

--Chicago Tribune

"Kienzle surely ranks among the top talents working today."

--Detroit Free Press

"William X. Kienzle is 'the master of the theological mystery.' "
