- Synopsis
- Sister Magdalen had vanished. Strange things are happening in Cornwall Convent, and most disconcerting to Sister Joan, who has been transferred there to quietly investigate the convent's mysterious troubles, is that the Prioress wears pink nail polish and perfume. She has also forthrightly inquired as to whether Sister Veronica, the beautiful young novice who has travelled down with Sister Joan, is a virgin. More--and more deadly--departures from normal convent routine are yet to come. Whispered hints dropped by other nuns...frantic searches for a missing novitiate...a secret midnight service in the convent chapel. Sister Joan begins to suspect what she hardly dares to name. But it is much too late to withdraw. Too late even to send for help... The intriguing rote and ritual of a cloistered religious community, a firmly crafted puzzle, and a lively, likable heroine--all combine for a fine debut for this first of a promised series. Read more of the atmospheric mysteries in the Sister Joan Series including #2. A Vow of Chastity #3. A Vow of Sanctity and #4. A Vow of Obedience, with more on the way.
