Murder at the Altar by Veronica Heley
The couple argue next door, the boy next door seems to know more than he is saying and the murder victim's mother is missing. This first in a series of mysteries is based in a church setting, and features Ellie Quicke, a recently widowed woman who finds herself to be something of a sleuth.
From 'Publishers Weekly', 23/10/00: Returning to adult crime after many years, Heley introduces loveable widow Ellie Quicke in the first of what one can only hope will be a long series.. Heley's keen observations and insights into her characters create a rich atmosphere of the social life in an English town... Combining sparkling wit and humor, quirky acts of fate and a dramatic ending, Heley provides all one needs for a satisfying read, except perhaps a cozy chair, a cup of tea and some chocolate biscuits.
Veronica Heley is the author of numerous books, and has published with Corgi and Frances Lincoln, amongst others. This is the first time in many years she has turned her pen to adult crime.
