A darkly intriguing, cleverly plotted mystery in the 'Reverend Mother' series, set in 1920s Ireland.
Cora Harrison turned to writing historical fiction after she retired from teaching to live on a farm near the Burren in the west of Ireland. As well as the Reverend Mother mysteries, she is the author of the Gaslight mysteries series set in Victorian London, and the ‘Mara’ series of Celtic mysteries, set in 16th-century Ireland.
Excellent . . . The pacing, clueing, and characterizations are all
top-notch. Father Brown fans will be in heaven
