Excellent Rating:
5 / 5
I have had this book on my list of To Be Read forever. I put it there only because this title kept coming up on book review sites, favorite lists, etc. everywhere I looked. When a book comes up that often I usually give it a try and it usually turns out to have been everywhere I looked for a reason. (This is why I finally read Val McDermid's A Place of Execution and it was fantastic also.) Well my theory stands! This was terrific little novel and I highly recommend it, I read it in one day because it was so good.
~~~An excellent read for mystery lovers of all ages~~~ Rating:
5 / 5
After being released from her vows, ex-nun Christine Bennett volunteers to investigate a forty-year-old murder case long since closed. Christine has to bring the past into the present in an effort to exonerate a pair of retarded savant twins, now senior citizens, while she is also adjusting to her new life as a contemporary woman. Lee Harris has made the characters in this book come to life! This was the first but definitely will not be my last time reading a Lee Harris mystery!!!
Smart and believable Rating:
5 / 5
Christine Bennett is in the process of readjusting to "normal life" after spending 15 years as a cloistered nun. At a town meeting, she speaks in defense of disabled twin brothers accused of killing their mother 40 years before and to her surprise is put in charge of researching the case. As she starts to dig into the past, she meets a helpful (and smitten) police officer who helps in her search for the truth.Christina does not run around accusing people of the murder without evidence, judge suspects harshly for their past actions or deliberately place herself in danger which is a refreshing change. This is a refreshing cozy mystery with likeable characters and an engrossing mystery.
