The Heron by Giorgio Bassani

From the bestselling author of the Mrs. Pollifax books comes a new mystery habit to acquire. From the moment Sister John and Sister Hyacinthe reach the old house left to their abbey by a mysterious benefactor, their cloistered world begins to crumble. First, there is the wounded man hiding in the house, then the suitcase stuffed with money sitting at the bottom of the well, not to mention fearful apparitions in the night. Lord only knows what's going on. That is, until the good sisters, armed only with their faith and boundless energy, set things right--even if it means a shocking revelation or two about ghosts, gangsters.and murder.

Giorgio Bassani (1916-2000) was an illustrious Italian author, editor, and critic who grew up in the city of Ferrara. He remained in Rome until his death, following a brief imprisonment for anti-Fascist activity.
