Brother Rattlesnake: A Hard Cider Abbey Mystery

By K.P. Cecala

The mysteries continue at Hard Cider Abbey, where a new snake in the grass threatens not only the cider-brewing abbey's reputation but also its very existence. The intrepid Brother Emerick takes on the case, but this time without his faithful companion Brother Odo, who has fallen into a spiritual crisis. But help comes from an unlikely new monastic recruit. Who will 'Brother Rattlesnake' turn out to be: The disgraced archbishop sent to the abbey by the Vatican to await his tribunal? The emotionally troubled young man who has just entered as a novice? Or, will the resident monks once again be forced to look among themselves and their community for the culprit? This 'traditional' cozy, leavened with both faith and humor, features a mystery-within-a-mystery: A whodunit played out on the vast gray plain between absolute good and absolute evil. As with the other books in the Hard Cider Abbey series, no profanity or excessive violence; a topical, contemporary 'old-fashioned' mystery for intelligent and perceptive readers.
