Review: Jude I. Parry, The Annoying Cases of Stepmother Gray

Unlike most Americans who call themselves Satanists, Stepmother Gray worships Satan. She founded the Church of Impure Evil, and leads its Minneapolis congregation.

In the tradition of Chesterton's Father Brown and other fictional clerics, she's an amateur detective. But unlike Father Brown, she doesn't want justice to be done. Her goal is to find the criminal, and then frame an innocent person for the crime.

Unfortunately, this never works out. In each story, the person she frames turns out to be guilty.
