Description

An unforgettable new female detective bursts onto the audio scene in a historical mystery series set in 1920’s Ireland, featuring the Reverend Mother Aquinas. Read by Audie award-winning narrator Rosalyn Landor. 

A dead body washed up after a flood dressed in evening finery is not a sight often seen in the slums of Cork city, Ireland.

When 70-year-old Reverend Mother Aquinas discovers the body at the gate of the convent chapel she teams up with former pupil, Police Sergeant Patrick Cashman and Dr Sher, a physician and friend to find out who the woman was – and who killed her.

“Compassionate and wise, the Reverend Mother is a strong and distinctive character, who works among the poor and understands their plight. Recommended for (those) who enjoy M.C. Beaton and Carol Higgins Clark.” —Library Journal
 
“Harrison combines a savvy detective and a setting fraught with intrigue and tension for another winner.” —Publishers Weekly              
 
“Outstanding.” —Booklist
