The Reluctant Detective

On her return to Winchester, Faith Morgan, newly ordained priest in the Church of England, witnesses the dramatic death of a fellow priest during a service - poisoned with pesticide mixed with the communion wine. One of the police officers called to the scene is Ben Shorter, Faith's ex-boyfriend. They trained together before Faith's calling took a different turn. At the request of the Bishop of Winchester, Faith stays on to look after the church at Little Worthy, where there have been some problems, and soon finds that the murder may involve not only the Bishop's family but her own nephew...

This is another well written Martha Ockley suspense novel.   This book takes us back before "The Advent of Murder" to when Faith Morgan is newly ordained and comes to Worthy as the new vicar.  As we learn about Faith, and her former life as a police officer, we find that she loves a good mystery!

This book is very easy to read, and hard to put down.   It is full of suspense and will keep you guessing until the end.   If you love a good mystery this is the book for you.  This is the first book in the Faith Morgan series, and I highly recommend it if you are into that type of genre.
