Description
The couple are determined their low-key celebration will go without a hitch, but there can't be an 'I do' while the vicar is missing. And when he's found dead - a victim of a poisoning - in the crypt behind the church, Hannah knows only she and Aunt Violet can find out who did it.
Hannah's beloved thinks she shouldn't interfere. But if he fails to remember that an independent woman in 1916 doesn't do what she's told to by a man, the dead vicar may be the least of his worries...
Then the vicar's own fiance appears on the scene, even though nobody knew he was engaged. And suddenly it becomes clear someone has a secret, one shocking enough to kill for.
Will the intrepid pair of amateur sleuths catch the murderer before they kill again? Or will it be til death parts them all?
