"entertaining regional amateur sleuth" according to A Customer. In Bernalillo, New Mexico Sister Agatha is sad with the closing of Our Lady of Hope Monastery and depressed with her pending relocation to Colorado. While she struggles with leaving the Land of Enchantment, her former high school boyfriend Sheriff Tom Green has been arrested for murder.The police accuse Tom of murdering his political opponent running against him for the sheriff's position, Robert Garcia at a Fourth of July celebration attended by many witnesses. The mayor's brother Garcia was found dead . Another Thurlo Winner Michael I like the writing style of Aimee and David Thurlo. This mystery follows the now familiar Thurlo theme, but there are enough surpises and twists to keep you guessing even as you get to the portion of the book where you know that the solution is about to unfold.I also like that the emphasis is on writing / story telling and not unnecessary descriptions of gore, mayhem, etc. The style and tone make it suitable for overall family reading. The religious aspects are handled with grace and humor and are defini. great series Carol P. Evans Have liked this series for several years now, after this book, doesn't look like it will continue. sure hope i am wrong. pat
