This is the first of a series of books about a new vicar. The stories are set in Granchester where Sidney Chambers begins his assignment of vicar. The period is the time of the beginning of Queen Elizabeth's tenure (1953) and the beginning of Chambers' tenure as vicar. Right off, the community is faced with a series of mysteries, none simple, and Chambers works to solve them. The community is hit with jewelry thefts, art forgery. and death of the daughter of jazz promoter's daughter.

Shadow of Death will keep you up at night reading and out hunting for the next book in the series. Just what is needed on one of these cold winter nights.
