Product Description
Sister Mary Helen is sinfully good at snooping through the San Francisco fog. Now a fellow OWL (Older Woman's League) member has disappeared. The police believe Erma Duran simply flew the coop, but Sister feels a Higher Authority pushing her to investigate. A gold medal entangled in Erma's bedsprings and a cryptic clue to a Byzantine madonna deepens the mystery. By the time Police Inspector Kate Murphy joins the hunt, Sister's good intentions have already paved her way straight to the Mission District--and a hellish encounter with sudden death.

 Just what I expected--a little light reading October 12, 2005
4 out of 6 found this review helpful
I have read this entire series as a little light reading for those evenings when I don't want my brain to work. I thoroughly enjoyed the flow of the story, even with the predictable ending. The light personalities are a bit sketchy, but drawn nicely enough that I pretty much got the picture. The characters remind me of my aunts and their friends. They'd be the type to get into just the same type of mischief as Sister Mary Helen and crew. If you liked the other Sister Mary Helen books, you'll like this one. If you thought the others were too much fluff for your liking, then this is no different.
 A too sweet&silly narrative. July 2, 1999

A poor-to-average attempt at a murder mystery. The main characters are too cute, the murderer too obvious, and the entire story is too dull. I read this simply out of curiousity to see if the author, who is a nun, could bring an interesting perspective. Alas.It's not terrible, but neither is it good. Sorry, Sister.
