Review: Interesting premise
Rating: 3 out of 5

Police detectives Rafferty and Llewellyn are well-fleshed out characters and thoroughly convincing - and balance each out well. The interesting approach is the murder in a convent - a nun, a murderer? It's not an exciting, bite-your-nails book, rather more a step-by-step police procedural: all the routine police-work involved in an unusual murder: the interviews, the hypotheses, the uncovering of the characters' background... I found it a little slow, but the descriptions of life in the convent were entertaining and informative - the ending was a trifle contrived, but I enjoyed the book nonetheless.
