A Vow of Adoration
by Veronica Black

IT’S A FINE LINE BETWEEN ADORATION AND INFATUATION.

While out riding one day Sister Joan stumbles across an old, ruined chapel in a lonely area of the moors.

It looks abandoned, but it’s not empty.

On one of the pews lies a man. From the smell, Joan guesses he’s been dead for some time.

With Detective Alan Mill away, Joan goes to his deputy, but the police seem strangely reluctant to help.

Meanwhile, a young woman turns up and begs Sister Joan to help find her missing sister. But the police are not interested in the missing woman either . . .

It looks like it’s all down to Joan. But can she help her fellow man and stay out of trouble?

MEET SISTER JOAN, A REBEL NUN WHO VOWS TO FIND OUT THE TRUTH.

PERFECT FOR FANS OF BLACK NARCISSUS, FAITH MARTIN, LIS HOWELL, JEANNE M. DAMS, MARGARET MAYHEW, DAPHNE DU MAURIER, MARGARET FRAZER, ELLIS PETERS or CORA HARRISON.

Genre: Historical Crime & Mystery

Reviews

“Very good reading for a gentle, well-written mystery.” Independent
“Another great addition to Veronica Black’s Sister Joan series — including a surprise ending.” Shannon
“I found it kept me turning the pages as the strange events mounted up.” Damaskcat
“Black ably evokes the Cornish Moors and fashions an interesting twist on an oft-used device in her conclusion.” Publisher’s Weekly
“As the book begins, it seemed a gentle whodunit, as it went on, it turned into a psychological twisting tale that was quite creepy. Looking forward to reading more from Veronica Black.” Susan
