February, 1932: the highly unpopular Joan Hexham, 'the spider at the centre of a web of village gossip', is killed on stage during an amateur performance of Hamlet. An accident, surely. Nobody would be brazen enough to commit murder in full view of fifty witnesses in Lower Addenham village hall - or would they? The local vicar, Reverend Lucian Shaw, is asked by the police to lend moral support to the villagers during their investigation. He soon finds he must do much more than that when it becomes clear that Mrs Hexham's death was no accident - and that her killer is about to strike again. This 1930s Golden Age style murder mystery featuring the likeable clerical sleuth Lucian Shaw will appeal to fans of Agatha Christie, Dorothy L Sayers and 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. The books are self-contained and do not need to be read in order.
