The murder of women priests in the shrine town of Walsingham sucks Dr Ruth Galloway into an unholy investigation.

Ruth's friend Cathbad is house-sitting in Walsingham, a Norfolk village famous as a centre for pilgrimages to the Virgin Mary. One night, Cathbad sees a strange vision in the graveyard beside the cottage: a young woman dressed in blue. Cathbad thinks that he may have seen the Madonna herself but, the next morning, the woman's body, dressed in white nightdress and blue dressing-gown, is found in a ditch outside Walsingham. DCI Nelson and his team are called in and establish that the dead woman was a recovering addict being treated at a nearby private hospital.

Ruth, a devout atheist, has managed to avoid Walsingham during her seventeen years in Norfolk. But then an old university friend, Hilary Smithson, asks to meet her in the village,ad Ruth is amazed to discover that her friend is now a priest. Hilary has been receiving vitriolic anonymous letters targeting women priests - letters containing references to local archaeology and a striking phrase about a woman 'clad in blue, weeping for the world.'

Then another woman is murdered - a priest.

As Walsingham prepares for its annual Easter re-enactment of the Crucifixion, the race is on to unmask the killer before they strike again...

Opinie krytyków

One of my current favourite crime series . . . a pleasure from start to finish (Val McDermid)
Griffiths has become a dab hand at plotting and cranking up the tension. The murders, and the muddled humanity of the characters, keep us turning the pages
Crime that doesn't sacrifice good writing and clever characterisation for the sake of the plot (Sarra Manning)
Elly Griffiths writes ever-more ingenious detective stories with a powerful sense of place and a varied cast of sympathetic and unusual characters. Her heroine is a winner.
Griffiths weaves superstition and myth into her crime novels, skilfully treading a line between credulity and modern methods of detection

As usual, Elly Griffiths has written an amazing book. Some things disturbing me, though... Cathbad's Irish accent is very very made-up. No Irish person speaks like that.
And how a vegetarian eats fish pie, I fail to understand. In the other books, Cathbad regularly goes to McDonald's. As if a conscientious person would ever go there, let a lone feed their children rubbish on a regular base. And he orders meat there, too. Agsin: vegetarian meat or what??
Maybe Elly Griffiths should analyze her own eating habits in order to realize that junk food is not the number one diet for normal people...
Other than that, another perfect thumbs up for the book.

basically very good

Wie immer amüsant, spannend und interessant. Auch die Pros und Kons bzgl. der Kirche resp dem Glauben untermalen die Geschichten jeweils recht gut.
