Nothing like reading in the park which is what we found ourselves doing at the weekend and this tye 7th in the merrily Watkins series finds the diocesan exorcist faced with the mystery of an apparent suicide from the tower in ludlow Castle mirroring that of a famous haunting (apparently true tale). Usual enjoyable story.

Mehso-so

Vicar Merrily Watkins investigates the death of a young boy who fell from the tower of a reputedly haunted castle. Fairly interesting but would have been better if it had been 100 pages shorter. Too much dithering by the main characters.
