The Reverend Kathryn Koerney is looking forward to guiding a group of her New Jersey parishioners through historical Oxford, England. She's also eager to visit her cousin, Richard, who works for a baronet at Datchworth Castle. But just before she departs, Kathryn gets word that Richard has fallen to his death from a castle tower. The police are calling it murder--yet they don't have a single lead. Fortunately, her friend, Chief of Police Tom Holder, is anxious to accompany her to the scene and lend his expertise. Secretly smitten with the divine lady priest, there's nothing the crime-deprived, unhappily married cop would like more than to conduct an investigation with her by his side. But his enthusiasm quickly fades when a certain marquis captures Kathryn's attention. Datchworth has a wealth of secret treasures--and dark secrets. And when Kathryn stumbles upon what could be the most sensational find of the century, Tom and Kathryn are caught in a web of greed and madness that will require all their courage and faith--not just to save their friendship, but their lives.… (más)

I do really enjoy reading mysteries with a clergyperson as the detective. This is the second Cristina Sumners mystery with Kathryn Koerney, an Episcopal priest, as the protagonist. There is something uneven about these novels. I found each one to begin sort of dull and then really pick up as I read along. In the beginning I was about to give it up when it did get interesting and I had to finish. Kathryn is young and attractive and has many admirers. Chief among them is the police chief of her town in New Jersey, Tom Holder. Tom is considerable older and married. Unhappily married perhaps. Are these books leading toward the two getting together? Thieves Break In has a bit of a Jane Austin/Mr. Rochester element. The story takes place mostly in a castle in England where Kathryn's cousin has been murdered by being pushed off the top of the parapet. The characters are likable. I will probably read the next one.

I had much more trouble with this book, the second of the series, because it jumped around several different time periods. Two I can handle, but more than that is confusing and annoying to me. Still, I like the characters. ( )
