Fantastic book! Grabs your interest immediately! Can't wait for the next installment of this new series. Thank God for Father Flenn!

Stayed up all night with this one. I loved how the characters came alive! Nice to see a believable Episcopal priest as the central character. Father Flenn wasn't some insipid, unbelievable, holier than thou character. He was... okay, I'll say it... "COOL!"
You won't go wrong reading this one. I found it on Amazon after someone recommended it to me. I absolutely loved it.
Trust me, this priest kicks ass!

1st book in the Father Flenn series. A book that cannot be put down, excitement on every page. This author is a priest in real life and started writing as an editor of newspapers. You will not be disappointed in this book and will want to continue reading these 4 books in the series. After these 4 there are two Arnold books that are different and just as exciting to keep the reader involved.

Nice to meet you Father Flenn! Combination episcopal priest and former CIA agent, what’s not to like? There’s a little bit of everything in “Uncommon Prayer” from unscrupulous characters to savey, kind and “real” Father Flenn! Looking forward to the next in this series!
