By Donna Fletcher Crow
The newest offering in The Monastery Murders series, An Unholy Communion (Lion Fiction).
Following the ancient tradition, ordinands from the College of the Transfiguration gather at first light on Ascension morning to sing their praises from the top of the college’s tallest tower. Not one to miss any liturgy, Felicity finds herself swept up in worship as she listens to the timeless words. But her delight quickly turns to horror when a black-robed body hurtles over the precipice and lands at her feet. Her investigative instincts immediately kick in when she sees a double-headed snake emblem clutched in the lifeless hand. Was this suicide? Or murder?
ISLAND BREEZES
I’m happy to get back to The Monastery Murders. Donna Fletcher Crow has come up with a very interesting series. Murders with romance on the side.
Felicity has a body literally fall at her feet, and the police aren’t too happy about it. It seems that Felicity and her fiancé Antony end up being involved in too many murders.
This time they promise to stay out of the way. They leave to lead a youth pilgrimage and retreat. This is a case of you can run, but you can’t hide. Evil and death follow them.
This is one of those times I didn’t want to put a book down until I had finished reading it. I’m looking forward to the next book in this series. I’m sure Felicity will manage to stumble upon another body before or during her wedding to Antony.
