Death in Holy Orders by P.D. James
2.0
God, this felt old fashioned. Here are the things that annoyed me:
1. The massive amounts of compassion everyone seemed to show for the paedophile priest.
2. The treatment of women as a bit feeble. "We must tell everyone there has been a murder - sit, ladies, sit. You can't possibly take this news standing up like a man."
3. The assumption that if you went to state school you must feel so inferior to those who had their education paid for (and must therefore be much more intelligent than you).
