Father Tom Christmas Mystery Book Series
Book Two
Eleven Pipers Piping
Father Tom Christmas expects little more than good food, good company, and a snowy weekend when he becomes stranded at a country hotel during a Burns Supper. Instead, the evening ends in murder.
As simmering rivalries and long-buried secrets emerge from beneath the convivial festivities, Father Tom discovers that sermon writing has done little to prepare him for solving a killing. Wry, observant, and richly peopled, this mystery blends village charm with a delightfully tangled plot, where gossip flows freely, motives hide in plain sight, and even a Yorkshire pudding may be an omen.
“[A] flurry of gossip and character-driven drama … makes the Father Tom series such fun to read, and Pipers is just as entertaining as its predecessor.”
“Benison uses the claustrophobia of village life to great effect, making the series a psychologically astute pleasure for fans of traditional cozies.”
