On the East Anglian seacoast, a small theological college hangs precariously on an eroding shoreline and an equally precarious future. When the body of a student is found buried in the sand, the boy’s influential father demands that Scotland Yard investigate. Enter Adam Dalgliesh, a detective who loves poetry, a man who has known loss and discovery. The son of a parson, and having spent many happy boyhood summers at the school, Dalgliesh is the perfect candidate to look for the truth in this remote, rarified community of the faithful–and the frightened. And 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...

Faber and Faber

I'll take the book to Tuesday's monthly meet-up at Sokos.

Thank you for the book, Tarya. I have not read even this one - yet.

I like this story very much. Even more now after having visited Oxford and London. I saw many colleges in Oxford and I was thinking about them while reading. Otherwise theological colleges are strange places in my opinion. I would not like to live in any of them.
