The perfect town. The perfect husband. The perfect crime.
Pleasant Garden, North Carolina seemed like a God-fearing community where simple dreams came true. For Patricia Blakley it was church on Sundays and a loving family. Her prayers were answered by Ted Kimble, a fellow Christian and son of a local preacher.
Then one afternoon, Patricia's charred body was found among the remains of her burned-out home. But it wasn't an out of control fire that killed sweet Patricia Kimble: it was a bullet to the back of the skull. The investigation not only revealed the cold-blooded motive behind the crime, but the revelation that Ted Kimble's flesh and blood helped him.
How could a woman of such purity and innocence fall in love with such irredeemable evil?
Through Patricia's heartbreaking diary entries and interviews with friends and family, 'The Preacher's Son' answers the question in a stunning tale of blind love, deadly secrets, and murder that would forever shatter the security and calm of Pleasant Garden.
