I have read a couple books featuring the Detective Jane Tennison and I have enjoyed each one. They can be read as standalones and still be good. This one takes us to an unearthed coffin in an old convent that is being renovated into apartments. It may have been an old coffin but the murdered nun inside has the police racing to find the killer. I do like learning about the police procedurals of the time and Jane, while not perfect, does her best to bring justice to the dead. This crime drama delves into the whole catholic church corruption and cover ups between nuns and priest and also the children they were in charge of (orphans and such). I liked reading about it and I think my favorite characters in Lynda LaPlante's books are Jane Tennison and Jack Warr.

I received a complimentary copy of this ebook from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
