Forty-nine witnesses, seven wives, one dead husband. What does it all mean? Find out in this crime graphic novel.On Monday, April 17, at 9:04 a.m., two police detectives are dispatched to investigate a death at a Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints compound in remote Arizona. Matthew Dunn, the patriarch of the Dunn family, has been found stabbed on the pulpit of his temple, basking in the blood-soaked gaze of his savior.Detectives Aguilar and Halwell begin the arduous task of questioning each of Matthewâs seven wives and quickly encounter a brick wall of memorized Scripture, canned platitudes, and locked lips. It becomes clear that the womenâs intricately braided hair, voices with sweet affectations, and modest clothing arenât just signs of Matthewâs brainwashing but armor they use to protect their family. But with each interrogation, the cracks begin to showâthe abuse, the truth of living and surviving in this cultâand the detectives uncover the unholy gospel of Matthew Dunn.
