Jesse Binger - Author

The Penitent Hours is a lyrical, hard-edged crime novel about broken faith and impossible choices.

 

On the wintry shores of Bay Point, Long Island, a haunted priest, an aging ex-con, and a woman caught between them are pulled into a web of violence that threatens to upend the fragile peace they’ve built.

 

As buried sins rise and loyalties fray, each must decide how far they’ll go to protect the ones they love.  Gritty, elegiac, and steeped in the shadows of noir, The Penitent Hours lingers where grace and damnation blur.
