In this second book of the For Hymn Mystery Series, Eryka Skidmore, a character introduced in book one, finds herself thrown into the middle of a crisis. Her boss is missing. Therefore, all the responsibilities at work have now fallen to her. To complicate matters, his secretary resigns at the same time.
As Eryka attempts to maintain business as usual, obstacles appear at every turn. Her focus is then forced to change from merely managing the business to finding her boss in order to save the company and possibly herself.
Is the 'coincidence' of the missing boss and his secretary an act of indiscretion as it appears? Or could there have been foul play? Join Eryka and another acquaintance from book one as they work to solve this mystery.
Part 1
When the storms of life are raging, stand by me.
When the storms of life are raging, stand by me.
When the world is tossin me, like a ship upon the sea,
Thou who rulest wind and water, stand by me.
Chapter 1
The storm raged. The vibrations from the thunder's rumbling could be felt even from within the rising elevator tucked deep inside the twenty-story Tennessee skyscraper. Eryka internally groaned when the elevator doors opened on the sixteenth floor.
She rushed through a maze of cubicles on her way to her own small corner of movable walls. Eryka sighed dropping her valise and purse onto the metal desk. "I'm late again."
Ariana poked her head over the top of the divider, and smiled conspiratorially. "Don't worry. The big man isn't even here yet," she whispered. "No one has seen or heard from him. And, his secretary is gone as well. She called in her resignation today."
"That's really bizarre," Eryka said.
"It looks pretty strange when the boss and his secretary leave together. . . ."
