Reporter "Mitch" Mitchell and his photographer buddy, Alan Jeffrey, are sent to investigate a
mysterious incident at the Unitarian Universalist Church in little Afton, Minnesota. One of the
members of the board of directors is dead, one is in critical condition, some are ailing and some
appear unharmed. After investigating the scene, Mitch and Al learn three things: poisoned coffee
appears to be the murder weapon, the church is a "welcoming congregation" (which accepts gay
members), and the murder victim was gay. Is this a hate crime, or something entirely
unexpected? Despite the pious setting, there seems to be plenty of hate -- and opportunity to kill --
to go around. Among the suspects are the coffee-making minister, a pharmacist, a chemist, and
some of the recovered victims. In a desperate move to catch the murderer, Al sets a trap. But will
the coffee killer take the bait?
