### Sloan and Crosby Series by Catherine Aird In a shadowy world where faith and secrets entwine, the seemingly tranquil lives of a convent's inhabitants turn deadly when Sister Anne is found murdered at the foot of the cellar stairs. Set against the picturesque backdrop of Calleshire, a quaint countryside teeming with eerie charm and hidden agendas, Inspector Sloan finds himself ensnared in a web of intrigue among fifty discreet, identical nuns—each cloaked in mystery and bearing an assumed name from their past lives. As he delves deeper, Sloan’s steadfast partner, the astute and unpredictable Detective Crosby, grapples not only with the labyrinth of pious facades but also with his own motivations and revelations about duty and faith. With each clue, the brothers and sisters of the convent become less like holy women and more like suspects in a chilling game of deception. Can they uncover the truth before the murderer strikes again, or will the veil of silence within these hallowed walls conceal buried sins forever? Rich with dark humor and clever twists, the Sloan and Crosby series invites readers into a world where the sacred meets the sinister, and every prayer could hide a lie. Join the investigation as loyalties are tested, and beliefs challenged in a series where nothing is as it seems, and plenty more mysteries await discovery.
