Most
of us have some familiarity with a church and the sacrament of the Lord’s
Supper – and the drinking from a cup – whatever that means.
At the up and coming House of the Sacred Flame, five
novitiates gather around the sacrament kneeling to receive the cup. They drink, and one falls dead.
Enter Inspector Alleyn who has to figure out who these
people are, what there relationship is to the deceased, and why she gave all
those bonds.
Death in Ecstasy by Ngaio Marsh is another
enjoyable mystery which adds the facts up to catch the killer.
