Customer Reviews

Sisters, shamrocks and snakes: oh my!

If you like mysteries that are rich with detail and multiple plot lines, you will like the writing of Jane Haddam. Gregor Demarkian is a most interesting sleuth with many connections in the community of Maryville from past detections in other novels. As we are near St. Paddy's Day, I picked up this volume by Haddam in honor of the event. I have not read any other Demarkian mysteries, but I will. I like the snippets of characterization that are revealed piece by piece. As a non-Catholic, I am fascinated by the life of the convent and the political structure of the church. This inticately knit community lends itself to the mystery. If you like mystery, try on a Jane Haddam read.
