About the book
A young girl was thrown from a church tower, a man was sacrificed to Satan, and a priest was murdered at the hands of the Devil.
When the body of an elderly man is discovered in the remains of St Benet’s Abbey, with his throat slit and a knife in his hand, DI John Tanner and DC Jenny Evans have no choice but to conclude it was a death by misadventure. However, when the body vanishes from its resting place, and more gruesome murders occur, including a priest nailed to a cross and another impaled on a stake, the focus shifts back to the unsolved murder of a teenage girl who was thrown from the church tower forty-three years earlier.
Set in the enchanting Norfolk Broads, this fast-paced British detective series offers a dark and cozy Norfolk murder mystery with a hint of humor and a dash of romance. It will keep you on edge until the final shocking twist is revealed.
St. Benet's is an engrossing crime thriller that is part of a gripping series of serial killer books. Fans of L J Ross, Faith Martin, Joy Ellis, Damien Boyd, J M Dalgliesh, and Elly Griffiths will quickly become fans of David Blake.
