Sister Caravaggio | Maeve Binchy, Peter Cunningham, Peter Sheridan, Neil Donnelly, Cormac Millar, Eilis Ni Duibhne, Mary O'Donnell

pick

A Caravaggio painting disappears from the chapel of Doon Abbey in Kildare Ireland. Sister Alice, a novitiate, & Sister Mercy Superior investigate but the suspects and body count are many. I enjoyed this story but the book was written together with Binchy and other writers which caused it to be a bit confusing in parts. Loved all the humorous characters and the ending was surprising. Recommended for those whose love Binchy and humorous Irish tales.

EadieB I guess the writers wanted a happy ending! 5y

TheBookHippie It makes total sense as to how the story went ..seriously though a much needed fun ride for my brain. Can you imagine sitting around oooo let‘s do that to the story and at this rate we all can write a book together! 5y

cobwebmoth By the end I don't think a lot would have been accomplished by charges being brought against anyone. 5y

Crewgurl Well one of the masterminds was dead, another turned government witness and the rest were nuns and Davy. I guess not much left to arrest...no one wants a bad press story about arresting nuns. 5y

JacqMac Typical Catholic Church getting away with murder. 😂Though really, there wasn‘t anyone to arrest in the end. 5y

rubyslippersreads @JacqMac 🤣 5y

EadieB Not really! My main suspect was Sister Mercy Superior. 5y

TheBookHippie Nope! 🤣🤷🏽‍♀️🤪 5y

cobwebmoth I didn't get good feelings about Father Rynne, but I didn't think he would turn out to be that bad! 5y

CoffeeNBooks I didn't suspect them at all- I thought it was Sister Mercy Superior the entire time. 5y

Crewgurl Nope. Came completely out of left field. Never really got a good explanation on the back story either. 5y

JacqMac I didn‘t suspect them either. Though when I was first reading about the “big” woman, I thought it might be a man. I think I even said that in one of our first discussions. 5y

rubyslippersreads Weren‘t there several “big women” in this story? Didn‘t Alice remember her mother calling her that? I didn‘t suspect either of the Jesuits, but like @JacqMac I thought at least one “big woman “ might be a man. 5y

EadieB I thought she was trying to stop Sebastian from arresting her and Davy. 5y

TheBookHippie To protect herself. 5y

cobwebmoth I think she just reacted in the heat of the moment. 5y

Crewgurl I really have no idea. Desperation? Looking for a punching bag because of frustration? Secret life as a fight club leader? Anything is possible. 5y

JacqMac @Crewgurl 😂 I really have no idea. 5y

EadieB I was surprised that she was pregnant. I had thought she was ill or possibly killed. I guess she is not a nun anymore! 5y

TheBookHippie @EadieB 🤣🤣🤣🤣 spitting out coffee ...I guess not... 5y

TheBookHippie Seriously at some point I stopped reading to try to figure it out and just read and laugh at the fact that I had zero clue what was happening ...I too thought she was no more.. 5y

cobwebmoth I don't remember any indication to her age in the first part of the book, so I kept picturing her as older, so yes, the pregnancy took me by surprise. 5y

Crewgurl Very crazy. The weirdest part was who the father was and how it still ends up a happily ever after. 5y

JacqMac Very shocking. I thought she was dead, too. 5y

cobwebmoth I think he's scared of what will happen to him if he doesn't get out of his current situation. 5y

JacqMac I think he respects Alice. 5y

CoffeeNBooks I think they were lucky. I agree with @JacqMac that he respects Alice. 5y

EadieB Alice promised to get Bruno into the witness protection plan as Bruno is afraid of Metro. 5y

Crewgurl It all seemed a little far fetched, but I feel like that‘s the entire story so far 😂 5y

rubyslippersreads It seemed to me that Bruno found religion. 😏 5y
