BRITISH AUTHOR CHALLENGE JUNE - FRASER & CONRAD en 75 Books Challenge for 2016 (diciembre 2016)

Reseñas

Son muy pocas las noticias policiales que tienen por escenario un convento de monjas. Por eso resulta insólita y original una novela ambientada en una comunidad entregada por entero a la oración y a la enseñanza, en cuyo seno acontece la muerte de una monja, seguida de varios episodios tan mundanos como misteriosos.
