Publisher's summary

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.

As dark secrets unfold, can Daniel solve the mystery at the monastery without the help of Detective Seargeant Neil Vanloo?

Slow but lovely

Light on mystery and awfully slow at times however the domestic scenes are wonderful. Still worth a listen. Also I liked the awakening of Daniel’s romantic life - I hope it continues.

Very disappointing

I loved the first two books and was really looking forward to the third in the series, but everything about this book really disappointed me: the murder was dull, the solving of it equally dull. The wonderful side characters such as Audrey reduced to being paper thin. Storylines that didn’t go anywhere and felt like padding, designed to achieve word count.

I feel there was just too much emphasis on Daniel’s love life for a murder mystery. I do hope the series continues and the fourth book is a return to form.
