Summary
A Crown of Lights is the third instalment in the Merrily Watkins series from highly acclaimed author Phil Rickman.
When a redundant church is bought by a young pagan couple, the local fundamentalist minister reacts with fury. In an isolated community on the Welsh border, a modern witch hunt begins. Diocesan exorcist Merrily Watkins is expected to keep the lid on the cauldron...but what she finds out will seriously test her beliefs.
Also, there's the problem of the country solicitor who won't be parted from his dead wife, the mystery of five ancient churches all dedicated to St Michael, slayer of dragons....
And a killer with an old tradition to guard....
Critic reviews
"Ancient history, violent deaths, feuds, intrigues and murder. A most original sleuth." (The Times)
"Few writers blend the ancient and supernatural with the modern and criminal better than Rickman." (Guardian)
"Compassionate, original and sharply contemporary, Rickman's crime series is one of the best around." (The Spectator)
