Who would want to kill a nun? That was the problem facing Inspector C.D. Sloan of the Berebury CID when the body of Sister Anne was found at the foot of the cellar steps at the Convent of St Anselm. Sloan soon found that interviewing half a hundred black-habited sisters as potential suspects for murder was no easy task - especially when he realised that, to him, one nun looked very much like the next, and every sister had an assumed name - and a past...

Jane Whitefield is a Native American guide who leads solitary outcasts through hostile territory to escape the vengeance of their enemies. But the shaded forest paths her Seneca ancestors might have followed on such missions have all been converted to superhighways, and now the safest way stations are crowded urban buildings that offer the camouflage of anonymity. Still, the supply of runaways - and the need for a woman who will take great risks to save them - have never been greater.

Publisher's Summary
The last way antiques dealer Lina Townend wants to spend a summer’s afternoon is helping at a church fete. However, the vicar is an old friend so Lina ends up selling bric-a-brac. A harmless event turns into a crisis when someone tries to steal a tatty old snuff box from under her nose. Tatty it might be, but its valuable enough for the would-be thief to attack Griff, her business partner, to frame Lina for a crime she didn’t commit, and to kill and old friend. And maybe other people too. Because the senior police officer in charge of the case suddenly becomes preoccupied with a personal problem, Lina is forced to seek help from her one-time boyfriend DI Morris, now married with a baby.

Distracted
I enjoyed the book very much.
The storyline was captivating, and I liked the protagonist from the beginning.
I have listened to a number of books narrated by Diana Bishop, and usually enjoy her, as she is quite talented, but I couldn’t quite buy her as a young person who grew up on the streets and struggled with vocabulary. Her voice is so refined, it didn’t quite fit.
With that said, I still enjoyed the book. I was a bit lost at the beginning in sorting out the relationship of the characters, but that might be because this is the 4th book in the series. I enjoyed it enough that I plan to go back and listen to the first three.
