Summary
The Reverend Blake Fisher was ambitious and naive, a combination that led to his exile to Picketsville, Virginia, where his bishop has named him the new vicar. He’s off to a poor start what with a corpse in the sanctuary, his gun stolen, his congregation in open rebellion, and the local law breathing down his neck. Then the Vicar’s secretary, Millicent Bass, an incorrigible gossip and snoop, follows Waldo to an early grave.For Sheriff Ike Schwartz, two murders and the unexplained presence of the FBI in his town wreak havoc with keeping the peace. They don’t do his romance with the president of Callend College for Women any good either. Ruth Harris is threatened by the murders on the one hand, and on the other by her faculty, who dismiss Ike as just another country cop. If only they knew how overqualified Ike actually is….
