"A woman priest at St Margarets? Over my dead body!" Dolly Topping, head of the national organisation Ladies Opposed to Women Priests and wife of one of the churchwardens, feels that strongly about it. It is unfortunate, therefore, that Father Julian, the wellloved curate of the Pimlico church, should have been killed in a burglary gone wrong. And doubly unfortunate that the Vicar, upwardlyaspiring William Keble Smythe, should choose to appoint a woman to replace him. From the moment that Rachel Nightingale enters the serene AngloCatholic world of St Margarets, tempers and emotions run high Christian charity is not much in evidence, even among those who espouse it loudly. Then another accidental death unites the parishioners in new heights of hypocrisy, and leaves some crying murder. But David MiddletonBrown is sceptical until he learns about Father Julians death. With the encouragement of the Archdeacon, David and Lucy Kingsley embark on a search for the truth about the dead man out of mind, and discover more than they ever wanted to know about greed, hypocrisy, ambition and the cost of love.
