Condition: Bueno. : Christmas, 1930. An exiled Balkan king, living incognito in rural Suffolk, is shot dead in his secluded mansion following a meeting with the local vicar, Reverend Lucian Shaw. Special Branch detectives are soon on the trail of two sinister agents of a foreign power that they think are responsible, but Shaw begins to realise that the culprit could be much closer to home. Observation, cogitation, meditation and prayer lead him down a dangerous road towards a desperate killer who will stop at nothing to evade capture. This book will appeal to lovers of classic British crime from the Golden Age by authors such as Agatha Christie and Dorothy L Sayers, as well as GK Chesterton's 'Father Brown' series. The Reverend Shaw books in order are: A Third Class Murder, The King is Dead, The Wooden Witness, Death on the Night Train, Murder in Act Three and Murder at Evensong. Each book stands alone and does not need to be read in order. .
