Review Splendid fun and a complete delight to read She is unique x2019; John Welcome, Irish Independent The clever plot takes second place to the ebullience of the writing and spot-on inventiveness of the satire Marcel Berlins, The Times Sprightly, saucy and ingenious John Coleman, Sunday Times Product Description Ruth Dudley Edwards wickedly funny series taking an irreverent look at the British Establishment continues with this burlesque in a bishopric. For many years Westonbury Cathedral has been dominated by a clique of High Church gays, so when Norm Cooper, an austere, intolerant, happy-clappy evan gelist, is appointed dean, the announcement is met with shock, outrage and fear. David Elworthy, the gentle and politically innocent new bishop, is distraug ht at the prospect of warfare between the factions; contentious issues incl ude the camp lady chapel and the gay memorial under construction in the dea nery garden. Desperate for help, Elworthy cries on the shoulder of his old friend the redoubtable Baroness Troutbeck, who forces her unofficial troubl eshooter, Robert Amiss, to move into the bishops palace. Amiss, Troutbeck and the cat Plutarch address themselves in their various ways to the bishops problems, which very soon include a clerical corpse in the cathedral. Is it suicide Or is it murder And who is likely to be next
