Shortlisted for the Agatha Award for Best Contemporary Novel (2008).

I Shall Not Want is the sixth in Julia Spencer-Fleming's series featuring Russ Van Alstyne and Clare Fergusson. In the searing conclusion to All Mortal Flesh, Police Chief Russ Van Alstyne's precarious balance between duty and desire was broken by his wife's tragic death. Now, Russ and Episcopal priest Clare Fergusson are separated by a wall of guilt and grief. When a farmhand stumbles over a body, Clare is reluctantly drawn into the investigation through her involvement with the migrant community. The discovery of two more bodies could mean a serial killer is on the loose. As spring turns into summer, Russ is plagued by media hysteria, conflict within the police department, and a series of baffling assaults. Throughout the escalating tensions, emotions are fueled as Russ and Clare find themselves seeking each other out, even as they intend to keep distant.
