Marduke Manor

Father Nick Llewellyn likes being a priest, even if his parish is dying.

But now his school principal’s out on medical leave and he doesn’t do parish...

Sister Kate knows how to run a school, how to handle a crisis, and how to keep a straight face while carrying a whole mess of secrets. What she’s not supposed to do is move into a rectory with two priests, become principal at a Catholic school on life support, and fall back into orbit around Jake—the man who killed her high school boyfriend.

The Mardukes are used to chaos. They live in one vast, busy household, run schools and a diocese, and somehow still manage to find time for meals, prayer, and way too much family drama.

But when married priests, online Masses, seminary expansion, and Vatican politics collide, Matt Marduke’s world gets a whole lot bigger than Wisconsin. Rumors...

Adam never planned to become the kind of man who needs a chosen family, but the old one is fractured, the firm is toxic, and the people who should be in charge are too busy looking away. When he’s pulled back into the orbit of the Mardukes—a loud, strange, deeply loving clan with more faith than sense—he starts seeing what he’s been missing all...

At Marduke Manor, nobody ever minds their own business. Not the cardinals, not the priests, not the sisters, not the children, and definitely not Eleanor’s family.
