The Hour of Death

A Sister Agatha and Father Selwyn Mystery, Book 2

De: Jane Willan

Narrado por: Helen Lloyd

Sister Agatha and Father Selwyn make sleuthing a work of art. But will they paint themselves into a corner when they investigate the Village Art Society president's death?

As yuletide settles upon Gwenafwy Abbey, the rural Welsh convent's peace is shattered when Tiffany Reese, president of the Village Art Society, is found dead on the floor of the parish hall. Sister Agatha, whose interests lie more with reading and writing mystery stories than with making the abbey's world-renowned organic gouda, is not shy about inserting herself into the case. With the not-entirely eager assistance of Father Selwyn, she begins her investigation.

Sister Agatha has no shortage of suspects to check off her naughty-or-nice list, until finally, Tiffany's half-brother, Kendrick Geddings, emerges as the prime suspect. There never was any love lost between Tiffany and Kendrick, and of late, they had been locked in a vicious battle for control of the family estate. But if Sister Agatha thinks she has the case wrapped up, she'll have to think again.

As the days of Advent tick by, Sister Agatha is determined to crack the case by Christmas in The Hour of Death, Jane Willan's perfectly puzzling second Sister Agatha and Father Selwyn mystery.

Loved it and every character within!

Great cheery mystery, good plot, especially nice before Christmas. I want more from this author!

Love it

Have fallen in love with Sister Agatha & Father Selwyn and the convent of Gwenabwy. Always richly drawn characters and a great plot that keeps you guessing til the end. I hope to hear more of this small Welsh village.

Fun

I like how she brings in other fictional detectives. A fun listen for all ages

Peaceful Enjoyment

I really like peaceful way I was able to listen to this series. There is nothing in the stories that tricks the emotions and if miss some of the story by falling asleep you can pick it up without much effort. As in all her stories all the mysteries are tied up and the endings are happy. The stories are fun and enjoyable.

The amazing Sister Agatha

I’ve really been enjoying this series! It’s so nice to have quality books like this in the plus catalog. Sister Agatha fits right in among the great literary sleuths! This book was so good it flew by and I’ll definitely have to get a hold of some of this amazing “welsh brew.”

Just what I needed!

Amidst the toil and turmoil of these crazy days, I found the two books in this series an amazing escape. The characters are lovable, the setting perfect, and the narration is perfect! Oh yes, the mystery is intriguing as well! :)

Really clever cozy

This one was a great surprise. Thanks, Audible. I’ll look for more by the fascinating author, whose references to Gamache, Plum and Milhone are priceless. The narrator was excellent. More, please.

I love the Gwenafwy Abbey Nuns

I enjoyed the interaction and support that the nuns in Gwenafwy Abbey have with each other. They are a loving family, who’s willing to help out Sister Agatha in her investigations. Bishop Susan is something else in both books! WOW! I love their version of the nativity scene. Very cute. Use what you got. It gave me a chuckle. The story have some twist and turns that I didn’t foresee and kept me guessing until close to the end. Another enjoyable story. I understand there is a third book. My eyes don’t allow me to read extensively anymore so I need to listen to books in Audible. I sure hope that the third book becomes available in Audible soon.

Very enjoyable

This is the second book I’ve read in the series and they are enjoyable. Fun, lighthearted and easy listening. The story and characters are great. The narrator is wonderful.

Pleasant Detective Story

Not exciting but a cleverly constructed plot and likeable heroine (Agatha was the major investigator). A little corny at times.
