The Christmas Night Murder
By Lee HarrisPublisher Description
Murder spoils the holiday for the nuns at St. Stephen’s Covenant. . . .
It’s a snowy Christmas at St. Stephen’s Convent, where a cheerful party awaits an old friend and former confessor, Father Hudson McCormick. But he never reaches his destination.
Christine Bennett, a former St. Stephen’s nun, arrives to investigate the disappearance. But the nuns are mum until an old scandal involving the priest and a St. Stephen’s novice rears its ugly head. Has Father McCormick, unable to face the scene of his sins, gone underground? Or has someone taken belated revenge, ensuring that the truth will never be known?

“It’s written well, and has a simple style that added to my enjoyability. It being included for free on audible also certainly helped, as I may not have picked it up otherwise being in the middle of a series and all, although I do like the cover a lot.
Christine “Chris” Bennett almost became a nun, now she’s an amateur sleuth instead. Her husband is an NYPD officer, and tries to help, but she does the connecting of dots all on her own. So when one of her favorite priests goes missing on Christmas, she’s pulled back into a blend of her old and new worlds.
Personally a 4/5*. Liked it, but was kind of light on the Christmas.”
