A London nun and whodunit writer finds herself enmeshed in a sinister murder plot in this mystery series debut.

Meet Sister Veronica Angelica, a secret crime fiction writer and lover of custard cream biscuits.

When she discovers a dead man in the grounds of the Catholic Youth Hostel, next door to her convent, she can see he’s been brutally murdered. What she doesn’t know, is that Jamie had a secret he’d been about to confess …

Being forbidden by the Cardinal to contact the police, the nuns at the Convent of the Christian Heart are instructed to contain news of the murder. Then, as Sister Veronica tries to uncover the truth, another murder takes place, plunging her deeper into the mystery.

But when her investigation raises more questions than answers, will Sister Veronica be able to solve the case without attracting the killer’s attention?

A compelling mystery perfect book for fans of Ann Cleeves’s Vera Stanhope series, as well as fans of authors like Faith Martin and J.R. Ellis.
