Fort


Tuesday


I've not been in a reading slump per se, but I haven't been drawn into reading what I've been currently reading in the past week. So I started the Blake Banner book yesterday and I'll be starting this library book today ... 


MURDER BEFORE EVENSONG by The Reverend Richard Coles. 1st of 3 in series featuring Canon Clement.

Canon Daniel Clement is Rector of Champton. He has been there for eight years, living at the Rectory alongside his widowed mother - opinionated, fearless, ever-so-slightly annoying Audrey - and his two dachshunds, Cosmo and Hilda. When Daniel announces a plan to install a lavatory in church, the parish is suddenly (and unexpectedly) divided: as lines are drawn, long-buried secrets come dangerously close to destroying the apparent calm of the village. And then Anthony Bowness - cousin to Bernard de Floures, patron of Champton - is found dead at the back of the church, stabbed in the neck with a pair of secateurs. As the police moves in and the bodies start piling up, Daniel is the only one who can try and keep his fractured community together... and catch a killer.
Published 2022; 352 pages. This will be for scavenger hunt prompt: blue on cover.


I've got sprints tonight. I think I may just read rather than crochet. And then bed.


Have a good day


Much love,
PK the Bookeemonster
