Church politics can be murder, as Dorothy Martin’s husband Alan is about to discover.
After decades on the job, Sherebury’s doddery old bishop is retiring and must be replaced.
Four candidates are now vying for the post.
Who will be the last man standing?
It’s up to Alan and his fellow committee members to decide.
Then one of the hopefuls turns up bludgeoned to death in a secluded side chapel.
Someone will stop at nothing to win the race . . .
To Dorothy’s horror, suspicion falls on Alan himself.
Can she catch the real murderer in time to clear her husband’s name?
Perfect for fans of Stella Cameron, Faith Martin, Agatha Christie, Frances Evesham, Betty Rowlands, or M.C. Beaton.
