    Mõrv pastoraadis

    Faith Martin

    Saage tuttavaks pastoriproua Monica Noble’iga, kelle hobiks on kuritegude lahendamine.
    VAIKSES COTSWOLDI KÜLAS ON PÕRGU LAHTI!
    Monica Noble korraldab uute majaelanike tervitamiseks soolaleivapeo. Külaliste seas on Margaret ja tema abielurikkujast mees Sean, staarkokk, Oxfordi ülikooli professor, neljakümne ringis lahutatud naine ja mitme jõusaali omanik.
    Kui pokaalid juba kõlksuvad, kärgatab püssilask. Üks külaline leitakse surnult.
    Peainspektor Jason Dury ja seersant Jim Greer saabuvad peagi sündmuspaika ja saavad teada, et ohvril oli palju vaenlasi. Peaaegu kõik külalised varjavad saladusi ja mõrvamotiive. Isegi Monica enda tütrest saab kahtlusalune.
    Kui üks teine majaelanik ligi nädal aega hiljem surnuks kägistatakse, muutub asja lahendamine veelgi pakilisemaks.
    Kas Monica oskab kohalikke uurijaid aidata, et oma tütar kahtluse alt vabastada ja mõrvad lahendada, enne kui veel keegi eluhinda maksab?
    See on esimene raamat nauditavast mõrvamüsteeriumide sarjast, mille huvitavad tegelased ja mõistatuslikud mõrvad sunnivad lugeja viimase leheküljeni kaasa elama.
    Täiuslik lugemisvara klassikaliste kriminaalromaanide austajatele sellistelt autoritelt nagu Agatha Christie, LJ Ross, T E Kinsey ja J. R. Ellis.
    MONICA NOBLE jäi noorelt leseks ja pidi hakkama üksi oma keevaverelist tütart kasvatama. Või vähemalt seni, kuni armus maapastor Graham Noble’isse. Naine loobus lennukast turunduskarjäärist Londonis ja kolis Cotswoldi mägikuurorti. Sealne maaelu oli tõeliselt meeldiv … kuni toime pandi jõletu tapatöö. Ja Monica avastas kõigi üllatuseks, et tal on annet need kõige ebapühamad kuritööd lahendada.
