Enjoyable series of four related short stories set in early 1960s and featuring Sidney Chambers, full-time cleric and amateur sleuth. ( ) This is my third Grantchester books, and the book seemed dreary and uneventful. I felt the book contained too much preaching and not enough action for a mystery. I have decided to give James Runcie a rest and not continue the Grantchester mysteries, for a while. Runcie provokes religious and life searching questions which would be better served in a different genre. In this book, Sidney seems caught up in his own problems and feelings, such as he a good pastor or a good husband or a good man. I felt cheated and wondered where did the real Sidney go. Maybe the next book will be better, but this reader will read other books before returning to Granchester. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

"Our favorite clerical detective is back with four longer mysteries in which Canon Sidney Chambers attempts to stop a serial killer with a grievance against the clergy; investigates the disappearance of a famous painting after a distracting display of nudity by a French girl in an art gallery; uncovers the fact that an "accidental" drowning on a film shoot may have been something more sinister; and discovers the reasons behind the theft of a baby from a hospital just before Christmas 1963. In the meantime, Sidney wrestles with the problem of evil, attempts to fulfill the demands of his faithful Labrador, Dickens, and contemplates, as always, the nature of love"-- Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
