About this listen

St Michael’s Church may be derelict but it’s not deserted. Someone still comes here to worship on nights when the moon is full. Arnold Landon should know. He’s seen the grisly evidence for himself. Blood among the roses.

The butchered remains of a man, tangled in the undergrowth. The victim was a traveler. How did he come to be in the churchyard? Arnold has a theory that leads back centuries, all the way to the cult of the Raging Wolf. Everyone tells him it’s impossible, that the cultists are dead and buried. But the devil wears many faces—Arnold’s worked in planning long enough to know that much for sure.

Can he unmask the modern-day killer before anyone else pays the price?

The plot has to be taken with a pinch of salt and the ending with the understanding that it’s fiction. However the story is entertaining and the narrator excels as usual.

Not as good as previous books

"Murder in the Church" offers another excellent murder mystery brimming with fascinating information about history and old customs and practices. The Senior Planning Officer (and his various reincarnations) must be one of the funniest characters ever written. Lewis must have dealt with a lot of incompetence in senior positions.

Immensely enjoyable and hilarious.
