Pastor Stephen Grant?

Stephen Grant is the pastor at St. Mary’s Lutheran Church on eastern Long Island. Grant is one of the more unique second-career clergy around, as he once worked for the CIA. Besides theology, his interests include archery, golf, writing, classic films, the beach, poker, baseball, and history. Grant also knows his wines, champagnes and brews. Oh yes, he generally dislikes politicians, and happens to be an expert marksman with a handgun and a rifle, while being pretty handy with a combat knife as well.

3 Reasons for Reading the Pastor Stephen Grant Mysteries/Thrillers: More Thumbs Up from Kirkus Reviews

Kirkus Reviews has favorably reviewed the Pastor Stephen Grant novels and short stories. Here are three thumbs up...


1. Kirkus Reviews on LIONHEARTS: A PASTOR STEPHEN GRANT NOVEL: 

“The narrative’s swift momentum is retained even during profound moments, as in a scene in which terrorists debate their cause after murdering two men that’s intercut with clergymen reciting biblical passages. Though sequences of Grant or Caldwell and her team engaged in combat are exhilarating, the story’s brimming with everyday heroes. One political figure, for example, is rescued by a neighbor whose courage is measured by the hefty Desert Eagle gun he brandishes. First-rate supporting characters complement the sprightly pastor, who remains impeccable in this thriller.”


2. Kirkus Reviews on WINE INTO WATER: A PASTOR STEPHEN GRANT NOVEL: 

“A first-rate mystery makes this a series standout, even if the titular protagonist splits his hero status with others.”


3. Kirkus Reviews on MURDERER’S ROW: A PASTOR STEPHEN GRANT NOVEL: 

“Action fans will find plenty to love here, from gunfights and murder sprees to moral dilemmas.”
