 Lentorama 2024: Clerical Crime Solvers

Day 31: Sister Lou

Louise "Lou" LaSalle gave up the bright lights of Los Angeles for the quieter precincts of Briar Coast, New York. She's looking forward to some peace, and her nephew works for the college her order founded in the area.

Of course, murder gets in the way of her plans. A controversial theologian, whom Lou invited to speak at a feast day observance, turns up dead. Lou, sensing that the local police are off track in their investigation, teams up with a local reporter to look into the dead man's past for something (or someone) that would lead to his killing.

There are only three books in the Sister Lou series, which see he involved in crimes both her sisters and the wider Briar Coast community.
