Death in Holy Orders (an Adam Dalgliesh mystery)

Spine somewhat slanted and loose, corners slightly bumped. Ex-library with usual stamps, DJ in protective mylar cover taped to boards, back free endpaper removed. Cracked at half-title page. Text is clean and unmarked, "On the East Anglican seacoast a small theological college hangs precariously on an eroding shoreline and an equally precarious future. Then, the body of a student is found buried in the sand, and the boy's influential father demands that Scotland Yard investigate. Adam Dalgliesh, the son of a parson, once spent happy summers at the school. A detective who loves poetry, a man who has known loss and discovery, Dalgliesh is the perfect candidate to look for the truth in a remote, rarified community of the faithful - and the frightened. For when one death leads to another, Dalgliesh finds himself steeped in a world of good and evil, of stifled passions and hidden pasts, where someone has cause not just to commit one crime, but to begin an unholy order of murder."; Ex-Library; 7" - 9" Tall
