More Description
When the local diocese offers to pay for some renovations to the aging and perennially cash-strapped Our Lady of Hope monastery, it is, to put it simply, a godsend. But there's a catch - the monastery must house a novice nun from a different order while she teaches at a local Catholic School.
Sister Jo is loud, boisterous, opinionated, impulsive - and she snores loud enough to wake the dead. She's a disastrous fit for the older contemplative nuns at Our Lady of Hope. But even worse, threats start arriving at the monastery shortly after Sister Jo arrives. Then a woman is killed on the front steps of the monastery's chapel.
It's up to Sister Agathe to uncover the truth before her peaceful community is further disrupted - or worse.
