A Habit of Death - Paperback

by Christopher Bryan (Author)

DCI Cecilia Cavaliere, her husband Anglican priest Fr. Michael Aarons, and their precocious three year old daughter Rachel are back in a new mystery. Amid the excitements and fireworks of bonfire night in Edgestow, one of the sisters at the St. Boniface Convent has been murdered, and a precious painting has been stolen. But was the sister really who everyone thought she was? And what is the connection between the two crimes? Was the theft intended, and the murder collateral damage? Or was the murder planned, and the theft opportunistic? Or did someone really intend to commit both crimes in the same night? And if so, who? Cecilia and her friends must follow a complex trail if they are to find answers to these questions. "Christopher Bryan's novels, which take faith seriously, are ideal antidotes to the crypto-farces of Dan Brown." (The Weekly Standard Book Review)
