MY REVIEW:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Sister Eve and the Blue Nun” is the first book I’ve read by Lynne Hinton. I was uncertain what I could expect and it took me a little while to become fully engaged with the book even though it began quickly with a murder to solve. However, once I became better acquainted with the motorcycle riding, jeans wearing nun who doubles as a detective, it was easy to jump in and let the story pull me along for the ride.<\/p>\n

I liked how Eve tended to be a bit of a lone ranger but also had a tendency to jump into things too quickly and make a mess of them. Her belief in her friend’s innocence was admirable as was her determination to prove it. Unfortunately that led her to make dangerous decisions that jeopardized her life. The way the legend of the Blue Nun played into the story was fascinating and I learned about a spiritual gift recognized by Catholics called biolocation that I had never encountered before.<\/p>\n

All-in-all, I enjoyed reading about Sister Eve’s adventures in helping to solve another case enough that I will absolutely be open to reading more books by this author.<\/p>\n

After a murder at the monastery, Sister Eve may need a miracle if she is to prove a dear friend isn\u2019t a cold-blooded killer.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sister Eve, a motorcycle-riding nun with a natural (or is it supernatural?) gift for solving murders returns to the enclave she once called home and quickly finds herself confronting yet another mysterious death.<\/p>\n

Someone has poisoned Dr. Kelly Middlesworth\u2014a researcher on the life and ministry of 17th-century\u2019s revered \u201cBlue Nun\u201d\u2014and a set of irreplaceable historic documents have disappeared before they could even be examined.<\/p>\n

When all evidence seems to point to the victim\u2019s brother, Sister Eve sets out to expose the killer and learn the explosive truth those missing manuscripts might contain.<\/p>\n

Chasing a killer is dangerous work, and as her two worlds collide, Sister Eve may need some heavenly help simply to survive.<\/p>\n

Learn more and purchase a copy.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n
