Barnaby and Jones investigate the cloistered world of Midsomer Priory when a nun is found strangled. The detectives uncover a complex mystery involving holy orders, teenage romantic liaisons, missing trousers African art and missing antique silver as the community is forced to open its doors to 21st-century policing.
A rather better than average MSM made so by the inclusion of nuns, some good atmosphere of deceit and secrets, fantastic setting of the church and good characters. The conclusion in particular is quite good with a neat twist. I much prefer Neil Dudgeon over Nettles - like his dry look of amusement when he interviews a rather barmy suspect. He's also quite sympathetic and doesn't treat his assistants like lackeys- well not most of the time.
