Death in Holy Orders

P.D. James


When a student is found dead at the theological college, his father demands that Scotland Yard re-examine the accidental death verdict. Dalgliesh agrees to pay a visit, expecting no more than a straightforward examination of the evidence. Instead he finds himself embroiled in one of the most horrific and puzzling cases of his career. Others come to the college the weekend of Dalgliesh's arrival. One will never leave it alive.
