"I thoroughly enjoyed this 'English Village/Vicar' mystery. I look forward to reading more Nick Lawrence mysteries." — Linda (4 out of 5 stars)
"I thoroughly enjoyed this 'English Village/Vicar' mystery. I look forward to reading more Nick Lawrence mysteries."
" This was a VERY cozy mystery. I always like a nice, handsome new vicar as the main character :) "
" I had a hard time getting into the book but warmed up to it as I continued to read. I ended up quite enjoying it. Most of my problem was I felt the sentences were clumsy and I had to reread them frequently. I like a book to just flow. I enjoyed the twists and unpredictability of it though. "
" Wow, this book was really good. Kept you thinking about who the suspect was. "
" This is really a two and a half, but it's so much better than the mystery I finished right before it, so it gets pumped up. It's also very obviously small press, and you can tell, and things seemed sort of random, but still. "
" The Mills of God-Awful. An ok premise destroyed by witless characters, terminal dialogue and snail-like pace. Snobby vicar meets one dimensional characters where who cares if the serial killer terminates the entire village. Appalling ending. How did this get published? "
