Motivational Quotes of the Day |
DEATH IN HOLY ORDERS
By: by Charles Keating, P. D. James, et al., 2001
We love murder mystery books, but too many seem trivial: a cute plot and setting, but no evidence that the author was deeply involved in creating a special reading experience. Discovering P.D. James changed that for us. She wrote a dozen books in her life, published more than 20 years ago. Her books are wonderful! We found them clear, erudite, and involving without being silly. They are generally set in the southeast part of England. We just finished DEATH IN HOLY ORDERS and strongly recommend it, and all others by P.D. James.
