Sidney Chambers and The Problem of Evil: Grantchester Mysteries 3 - Softcover
Book 3 of 6: Grantchester
Synopsis
The third book in The Grantchester Mystery Series, and the inspiration for the primetime PBS/Masterpiece television series, Grantchester.
Now on Netflix
It is the 1960s and Canon Sidney Chambers is enjoying his first year of married life with his German bride Hildegard. But life in Grantchester rarely stays quiet for long.
Our favourite clerical detective soon attempts to stop a serial killer who has a grievance against the clergy; investigates the disappearance of a famous painting after a distracting display of nudity by a French girl in an art gallery; uncovers the fact that an 'accidental' drowning on a film shoot may not have been so accidental after all; and discovers the reasons behind the theft of a baby from a hospital in the run-up to Christmas, 1963.
In the meantime, Sidney wrestles with the problem of evil, attempts to fulfil the demands of Dickens, his faithful Labrador, and contemplates, as always, the nature of love.
The third in 'The Grantchester Mysteries' series – six detective novels spanning thirty years of British history – these four longer stories are guaranteed to delight the many fans of Canon Sidney Chambers.

Reviews
Anglican Canon Sidney Chambers, like his friend and colleague, Inspector Geordie Keating, is never off duty. Yet Chambers must balance his clerical obligations, his recent marriage, and the detective work he relishes, plus a role in a film based on a Dorothy Sayers novel, while bearing in mind his archdeacon’s directive to avoid distractions from his religious life. Warning aside, Chambers is instrumental in solving four crimes in 1962–63 in and around Grantchester: three murders by a killer targeting clergymen, the theft of a museum painting, the seemingly accidental death of a movie actor, and the abduction of a baby from a hospital. While so many crimes in a single volume may distract new readers of the Grantchester mysteries, of which this is the third of a projected six, Runcie’s gently persistent protagonist is almost sure to win fans, whether he’s engaged in active sleuthing or musing on the nature of evil or love. Major life changes here lead to new beginnings for Chambers that should whet interest in future volumes of these charming cozies just touched with sex and violence. --Michele Leber
