Linghams – Reverend Richard Coles in conversation with Clare Mackintosh19th June 7PM

Thrilled to welcome one of our favourite’s back to the Wirral where he does say he loves popping to! Interviewed by our friend of the shop Clare MACKINTOSH Sunday Times best selling author!!!!

With his NEW book join us! For a fun filled evening!

After his debut with Murder Before Evensong, Canon Clement returns in this new novel from no. 1 Sunday Times bestselling author and all-around national treasure the Reverend Richard Coles.

Canon Daniel Clement is back… and so are his mother Audrey, the inhabitants of Champton and – of course – Cosmo and Hilda, Daniel’s beloved dachshunds.

It’s been a few months since murder tore apart the community of Champton apart. As Canon Daniel Clement tries to steady his flock, the parish is joined with Upper and Lower Badsaddle, bringing a new tide of unwanted change.

But church politics soon become the least of Daniel’s problems. His mother – headstrong, fearless Audrey – is obviously up to something, something she is determined to keep from him. And she is not the only one.
And then all hell breaks loose when murder returns to Champton in the form of a shocking ritualistic killing…
