4.0 out of 5 stars Evil near a Cornish convent, August 25, 2001

This review is from: A Vow of Chastity (Sister Joan Mystery) (Hardcover)

The sanctity of a Cornish convent stands in stark contrast to the evil which pervades the nearby countryside. Sister Joan begins to feel that all is not well in the homes of the children she teaches in the small convent school. She plans a school project and visits the homes of her students, while getting an uneasy feeling about some of them. It is hard enough to create a unified class between the local farm children and the Gypsy children who seem to have little in common, but some of their families add to the problem by being less than supportive of them. Suddenly two deaths occur which put the community into a fearful frenzy. Sister Joan does not wait for the local law enforcement agencies but does her own investigation and turns up some shocking evidence which points her to the murderer. This is an interesting series with some insight into the cloistered life.
