The funeral is a genuine means of pastoral care practiced by the church. Many times the funeral is the most momentous means of caring for the bereaved, and often it is the only time when the church has the opportunity to care for family and friends. While many resources on funerals are available to pastors, Gene Fowler offers a perspective of pastoral ministry, a guidebook for ministering and caring throughout the funeral-from pre-funeral to the funeral to post-funeral.

Peter Sharp represents a client with amnesia. Not only is he unable to tell Peter his name, but also has absolutely no recollection of the crime he is charged with committing. Not to worry: Peter obtains video surveillance footage proving his client’s guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. As usual, this is one of Peter’s cases that winds up being a conflict with his ex-wife Myra, who is the county’s chief prosecutor. He also may be more closely involved with FBI Special Agent in Charge Bob Snell than before, as they share a dangerous high-speed situation on a winding road. Suz
