From multi-million-selling Faith Martin, one of Britain's best-loved mystery writers. Discover a series of murder mysteries set in an idyllic English village. Meet Monica Noble: the vicar's wife with a taste for solving crimes.
THE WEEKEND TURNS MURDEROUS.
Monica Noble and her husband Graham, the local vicar, are invited to take part in a high-flying church conference being held at a swanky manor house hotel in their village.
At the Saturday night dinner, the ambitious female cleric Celia Gordon tragically dies, seemingly of a peanut allergy.
But when Chief Superintendent Jason Dury arrives on the scene he quickly discovers that it's a case of murder.
And Monica's husband is the prime suspect.
Other suspects include an eminent bishop, an archdeacon viciously opposed to female clergy, and his wife, the curator of a local museum, who is definitely up to something.
But if Monica is to find out who killed Celia, and free her husband from suspicion, she must grapple with a ruthless - and increasingly desperate - killer, putting herself and those around her in mortal danger.
This is the third of a series of enjoyable murder mysteries with great characters and baffling crimes which will keep you gripped till the final page.
Please note this book was first published as An Unholy Shame under Faith Martin's pen name Joyce Cato.
Perfect for fans of classic whodunits by authors like Agatha Christie, L.J. Ross, Simon Brett, Richard Osman and the Rev Richard Coles.
MEET THE AMATEUR SLEUTH
Monica Noble was widowed young, leaving her to raise her feisty daughter on her own. That is, until she met and fell in love with Graham Noble, a country vicar (pastor), who enticed her to leave her high-flying job in advertising in the city and move to the Cotswold countryside. There she found bucolic life very pleasant indeed - until murder started to rear its ugly head. And she discovered, to everyone's surprise, that she had a flair for solving the most unholy of crimes.
