5.0

I love Reverend Mother mysteries and I think it's the best one I read so far.
The mix of historical facts and fiction works and it creates an interesting background to this complex and well developed mystery.
There's some local politics, a bombing that could involve IRA and a fleshed out cast of characters.
The descriptions of the retreat are quite funny and the mix of spirituality and local politics is well explained.
I loved the twists and turns of the mystery that kept me guessing and was happy to catch up with the characters.
I read it in one setting as couldn't stop reading.
Highly recommended.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine
