A Saintly Killing by Martha Ockley is book number 3 in the Faith Morgan series. I admit I skipped book 2, not because I didn’t enjoy the first one, The Reluctant Detective, but because I wanted to know if you could read one without the other. I recommend reading them in order as you can follow the storyline easy enough, but you feel like you have missed some of the personal story that goes along with Faith and her journey.

St. James is preparing to celebrate its 900th anniversary. (Ok we in the colonies get excited about something that reaches 50 years!) Faith is busy getting everything ready, including the commissioned painting that will go on the back of the pamphlet they are using to share some of the important moments in the church’s history. On the day the painting makes it to the printers, the artist ends up dead with no clues as to who the murderer could be. It could possibly be anyone, as Sal was not the warmest person. Almost everyone who met her had some reason or another to dislike her, including Faith.

Who in Little Worthy is capable of murder? Surely not one of Faith’s parishioners, but as she finds herself once again involved with solving the crime it starts to look like it. Will Faith figure it out before her ex-partner and beau Ben upsets everyone in town?

Once again Martha writes a delightful, cozy mystery. One that just weaves through the fabric of the story of the town instead of being the only thing the book is about. You once again visit with Faith and her sister as they work through the issue of their mother and her descent farther into Dementia. And what about Ben, at times he seems interested, but then again… *Sigh* what’s a girl to do? That is what can make a book fun to read, getting to know the characters. Of course having it set in England always makes it a bit better also.

So a lovely little series that is worth reading. Put the kettle on for a pot of tea and enjoy.

I received this book for free from Kregel for my honest review.
A Saintly Killing is the third book in the Faith Morgan Mystery series by British author, Martha Ockley (aka Rebecca Jenkins). Rev. Faith Morgan has been vicar at Little Worthy for almost a year now, and has her hands so full of preparations for St James’s Church 900th anniversary celebrations, she’s even using a clipboard. What is not part of the plan is the murder of the artist controversially chosen to depict St James Church on the anniversary leaflet.

Sal Hinckly was a talented artist who had managed to rub quite a few of Little Worthy’s citizens the wrong way. She even had nasty words with Faith. But murder? Of course, Faith’s ex-lover, DI Ben Shorter is immediately on the scene, interrogating with his usual disregard for anything except for cutting through to the truth. And Faith is dismayed to find that despite his callous, no-holds-barred approach, and his disdain for her vocation, she is still attracted.

As if she doesn’t have enough to deal with, her sister Ruth is insisting their mother, Marianne is showing increasing signs of dementia, and needs to be convinced to move closer to her daughters. Faith is concerned too, for her sister Ruth’s ex-husband, Brian seems to be on the scene again. And Faith is shocked to find one of her church wardens has plotted against her and lied to police.

Once again, Ockley gives the reader a great little cosy mystery that is filled with quite a few possible suspects, a range of motives and some red herrings. Her characters are familiar, her dialogue credible, and she evokes the Hampshire village with consummate ease. Faith Morgan is a very likeable protagonist good intentions and flaws in equal measure. Fans of this series will be hoping there is more of Faith Morgan to come. A very enjoyable read.
Love this author. A lively mix of Agatha Christie and Elis Peters. A pity they are so expensive but worth it. Well written and fun. Please write more.
