Ten residents. One killer. A secret that won’t stay buried.
There’s no place like London’s elegant Theresian Club — part-members’ club, part-religious centre.
Dowdy receptionist Julia Porter checked in years ago, and now she’ll never leave.
She is found strangled to death with her own tights in her room.
The kicker? She welcomed her killer in like a friend.
Detectives Markham and Noakes are on the case, and they know an inside job when they see one.
Then the club priest turns up dead. He was alone in the basement library when the killer struck.
What was he doing down there at night?
It’s up to Markham and Noakes to find out before the body count rises again.

THE DETECTIVES
DI GILBERT (“GIL”) MARKHAM
DI Markham is a startlingly talented detective rising through the ranks of Bromgrove CID. He is distant and austere — the product of a profoundly difficult childhood — but has a natural magnetism which inspires loyalty. He clashes with his slippery boss, DCI Sidney, who prioritizes the force’s public image.
DS GEORGE (“NOAKESY”) NOAKES
DS Noakes is a slobbish, uncouth and outspoken Yorkshireman, an object of despair to his superiors. He is, however, also a man of hidden depths, with a sensitive streak and a secret flair for ballroom dancing. Markham sees through his philistinism and they form an unstoppable partnership.

About the author

Catherine Moloney is a Liverpool writer of Irish-American heritage. After graduating in Jurisprudence from Jesus College (University of Oxford), she was called to the Bar at Gray's Inn. Despite qualifying as a barrister, her first love was English; this led to a PhD in English Literature at Birkbeck College (University of London).
In her academic career, she lectured and published widely on the subject of tuberculosis and nineteenth-century literature, but somehow managed to avoid contracting galloping hypochondria and turned her attention to crime fiction.

Saying that it is criminal element that is our reason for reading these well-written stories.
This one has a series of deaths in a religious colony, consisting of nuns, priests and people who are staying and studying the saint of a nun who died aged 24 of tb.
Well written and enjoyed the repartee amongst the characters. Saying that, I did read a review complaining about the use of words that need to be looked up and how it spoils the flow of reading. That is a pet hate of mine, especially when the word does not work and is used to show the writer's knowledge of obscure words when a more 'normal' one would have been a better use in the sentence.
While I did have to look up some words in this story, it was more about the religious phrase or word that I did not know. That is ok as they were integral to the storyline.
Thoroughly enjoyed going through the sleuthing process with Markham and his little band. Looking forward to seeing where his home life is going, from the little hints during the narrative, Liv, may be working herself up to being , 'livid '. Sorry couldn't stop myself, it was just wide open to that.

As a Bible believing Protestant, I abhorr such heresy.
Moloney writes well but the subject matter leaves much to be desired.
