Demon Summer by G M Malliet

Demon Summer by G M Malliet

*Nominated for the 2014 Agatha Award*

Agatha Award-winning author G. M. Malliet delights again with the forth entry in her critically acclaimed Agatha Christie meets Ian Fleming (Publishers Weekly) mystery series, featuring handsome ex-spy-turned-cleric Father Max Tudor.

Someone has been trying to poison the 15th Earl of Lislelivet. With his gift for making enemies, no one-particularly his wife-is too surprised until they discover the source of the poison: a fruitcake made and sold by the Handmaids of St. Lucy of Monkbury Abbey. Max Tudor, vicar of Nether Monkslip and former MI5 agent, is asked to investigate. But just as Max comes to believe the poisoning was accidental, a body is discovered in the cloister well. G.M. Malliet continues to delight readers in this standout mystery in her clever and engaging Max Tudor series.

G. M. Malliet's first St. Just mystery won the 2008 Agatha Award for Best First Novel, and was chosen by Kirkus Reviews as a best book of the year. It was nominated for several awards, including the Anthony, the Macavity and a Lefty Award for best police procedural. Her series from Minotaur featuring a former MI5 Agent turned vicar of a small English village debuted in Autumn of 2011. Of the fourth book in the series, Cleveland.com raved: [Malliet] may be the best mystery author writing in English at the moment (along with Tana French). She's certainly the most entertaining. She attended graduate school in Cambridge and Oxford; she and her husband travel frequently to the UK, the setting for her books. Weycombe is her first book of dark suspense.
