Cornwallis: The Devil Wore Sandals","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe Devil Wore Sandals\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA murder inside a church. A city on edge. A detective with more questions than allies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJames Cornwallis doesn't choose easy cases-he takes the ones nobody else wants. But this time, he's walking into a powder keg: a religious institution collapsing under the weight of its own secrets. A respected leader is dead, officials are running scared, and half the city is desperate for a culprit who fits their narrative.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJames knows better than to trust appearances. Behind the choir loft and administrative offices lies a battleground of financial misconduct, hidden relationships, and weapons forged from shame. The deeper he digs, the more the truth warps, shifting under his feet like the cracked sidewalks of Kensley City.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMacy, sharp-eyed and steady, becomes both his anchor and his challenge as they attempt to navigate a partnership that blends professionalism with something more complicated. Nadi and Reggie juggle school deadlines with high-stakes sleuthing, discovering key evidence that corporate actors would rather bury-and are willing to intimidate minors to protect.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery witness lies. Every suspect hides something. And when James finally pulls them all into the same room for a showdown inside the church itself, masks fall away. Bribery. Espionage. Infidelity. A murderer pushed over the edge by a truth too dangerous to reveal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe aftermath is explosive: city leaders scrambling for damage control, reporters twisting the story for profit, and powerful players slipping through the cracks untouched. Justice is served-but only partially. And the cost is long-lasting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs James signs off on the case, he can't ignore the fractures it's left behind: in the community, in the people he cares about, and in himself. His reliance on cannabis-sharp enough to keep him focused, blurry enough to jeopardize him at the wrong moment-forces a reckoning he can't postpone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the end, he walks the streets of Kensley City fully aware that this victory is temporary. The darkness here doesn't retreat. It lingers. Watches. Waits.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Twoblunt Marley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798298110150\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/15\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 148\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.46lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.34d","brand":"Twoblunt Marley","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":49170126176511,"sku":"9798298110150","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/james-c-cornwallis-twoblunt-marley-9798298110150","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
