review 1: Father Max Tudor is eagerly awaiting his "handfasting" ceremony to Awena, the love of his life and a pagan and to the upcoming birth of his child. He is summoned to a local nunnery to investigate charges of poisoning and misappropriations of funds. He is met with a cornucopia of characters, many with long past secrets. Throw in a treasure hunt and murder is the result. A bit convoluted in plot and alittle slow in the beginning. Still a worthwhile read./
review 2: I enjoy this series, seeing what happens with the characters thru time, but this one, while interesting & well-written as are they all, was just too convoluted in its puzzle and had too much religious philosophizing--yeah, yeah, the main character is an Anglican priest & it's set in a monastery,
... morebut it got really sluggish in the middle. Found myself skipping ahead so I wouldn't completely lose interest. Three stars for good writing but needed editing down. less
