BOOK 3 IN THE BESTSELLING CANON CLEMENT MYSTERY SERIES

'A delightful piece of detective work' Mail on Sunday
'A very moreish read' Daily Telegraph

Canon Daniel Clement has suffered a secret humiliation and to recover takes respite at the monastery where he was a novice. But the monastery doesn't allow the break he needs, for tensions are building there too. There is a death at the monastery, and Daniel thinks it might be murder.

Meanwhile back at Champton, Daniel is the subject of village gossip, his mother Audrey is up to something again, there's trouble at the dress shop, trouble up at the big house, and the puppies are running riot.

murder at the monastery? I read to about page 100 before giving up as I had absolutely no idea what was going on, it just flicked from scene to scene with no real purpose or sense of story line, and yes to much bible bashing just glad it was a free download.

Some twists and turns but not quite what you expect. Bit sadder than the previous books. Learn more about Daniels life before the village.
