The vaulted ceiling of Canterbury Cathedral has echoed many sounds over the centuries. But none more harrowing than the scream of ‘Murder!’ ringing out across the nave.
Sarah Vane is enjoying a leisurely day in the small town of Merstairs when she spots her friend – and renowned artist – Simone Benz walking into the cathedral. Sarah follows her inside the ancient sanctuary. But she’s utterly shocked to find Simone’s lifeless body, propped against a stone wall in the cloisters, spattered with crimson from a fatal stab wound.
Sarah feels an aching sense of loss when she thinks about Simone, especially when she learns she may have been Simone’s only friend in town. A feud between Simone and her neighbour, a vindictive ex-husband and a set of mysterious initials in her diary set Sarah’s inquisitive mind racing.
But events take an even more harrowing turn when Sarah finds the dead body of the cathedral dean bathed in the reds and blues of the stained-glass windows in the nave. Will Sarah solve the mystery before the killer strikes again?
A brilliantly cozy and utterly gripping murder mystery, perfect for fans of Faith Martin, J.R. Ellis and Clare Chase.

Sarah Vane is a retired doctor with an uncanny skill: finding dead bodies. Sadly, this time, the body belongs to her friend Simone.
Sarah and her friend Daphne are exploring the beautiful scenery in Merstairs when they see Simone hurrying into a cathedral. When they follow her inside, Sarah discovers Simone’s body propped up in the beautiful cathedral. Finding dead bodies isn’t the only thing Sarah is good at, though. She is also exceptional at solving murders, and she is determined to find Simone’s killer.
Things don’t go quite as smoothly for Sarah as she dons her amateur sleuth hat yet again. Simone was not well-liked. In fact, the sad truth is that Sarah may have been her only friend. A renowned artist, Simone had a reputation for being a truly vile woman. While Sarah may not be able to restore Simone’s reputation, the very least she can do is find her killer.
Murder at the Cathedral is another thoroughly enjoyable installment in the Sarah Vane Mysteries series. Both Sarah and Daphne are delightful characters, and Sarah’s partner, Charles, and her adorable little dog, Hamish are wonderful additions to the series. With an engaging mystery, a steady pace, plenty of suspects, and just the right amount of twists and turns, this book kept me guessing and entertained from beginning to end. I am really enjoying this series and look forward to seeing what Sarah gets herself involved in next!
