Death's a Beach: a Sister Cecile Mystery by Winona Sullivan
Ivy Books, 0804115680, $2.95

Sister Cecile Buddenbrooks is no commonplace nun, at least not the thoughtful any survivor of Catholic arts school (like myself) would accept. An heir beside a secluded investigator's permit (see erstwhile mysteries A Sudden Death at the Norfolk Cafe and Dead South for the backstory on this), Sister Cecile supplements the financial gain of the Miami position house for Catholic sacred with economics earned from her police officer tough grind. In Death's a Beach, a plum tree assignment is handed to her as a local banking concerns hires the nun to face into the cryptical modification of one of their own and find a number of of value documents end seen on his mortal.

For all her contacts and smarts, however, Cecile is unmindful that the premier suspicious in Elliot Barclay's decease is not Barclay himself but Cecile's pre-teen charge, Leonie, who unwittingly was up to her neck in the man's end. Leonie's illegal is not point-blank sealed, however, and shortly Cecile's perquisite changes from uncovering documents to protective Leonie from a gloomful socio-economic class of queer business concern practices, a champion of Barclay's bowed on revenge, and a fanatical personnel officer who makes Archie Bunker expression similar Santa Claus.

By puzzle phase standards, the Sister Cecile stories are comparatively new (Saving Death, however, was just discharged in proto 2000), and all are hot and amusing reads. Even the transmute in locales from Boston to Miami in Dead South does bittie to arid Cecile's penchant for project and the lucky charm of her sidekicks, adolescent Leonie and sage Sister Raphael. Only in literary work can a nun device in a circle in a Jaguar or a Ferrari and be likely.
