Blurb/Summary:
Sister Trixie Lavender, reporting for Miss
Marple duty! It’s been months since the evil residing inside me has reared his
violently helpful head, and things are pretty peachy. My demon sidekick Coop
continues to assimilate with the unsuspecting humans, our tattoo shop is busier
than ever, we’re more and more involved in our little community of Cobbler
Cove…heck, I’d even begun to attend the occasional Sunday sermon (after safely
confirming my body wouldn’t burst into flames upon entering Our Lady of Perpetual
Grace, of course). Yep, life is pretty good for me and mine.
Until the shocking murder of our new friend, Sister Ophelia, during a church-sponsored speed-dating event. Talk about flirting with death—literally. I can’t fathom who’d want to kill a sweet little ol’ nun, but as I’ve learned by now, life in small-town Oregon isn’t always what it seems. When a second corpse is found, the stakes are even higher as Coop and I, along with our good friend Higgs, race to unmask a killer.
But when my demon breaks free yet again, the killer’s not the only one in danger of being exposed…

Review:
If
you are looking for non-stop action in a cozy mystery with a story that is
wrapped up by the end of the book, then The
Smoking Nun is the book for you. There
is an underlying plot that runs through all the books, but you get a full story
each time with the Nun of Your Business series.
The
characters are endearing and grow on you with each story. Cobbler Cove wouldn’t be the same without
Trixie, Coop, and the gang. The gang is
yet again thrown into the middle of a murder case, but this one hits close to
home for Trixie and has emotional ties.
Be
prepared, once you start reading this story you will not want to put it down. Plot twists and secrets will have you riveted
until the end. As a reader, this was a
very satisfying story and complimentary to helping the series move forward.
