Tried this to see if was a good Agatha Christie-type cozy mystery and found that it was not very interesting. Maybe better as series progressed.

Aird's trademark dry wit and fine sense of irony are evident even in her first book, The Religious Body. Inspector Sloan, aided only slightly by the slow-witted Crosby, must figure out who killed a nun in her convent - before the killer strikes again. Full review to come.
