Sidney Chambers and The Forgiveness of Sins by James Runcie

4.0

Cozy mysteries in the genre sense and the mood/feeling of reading them sense. I'm still getting used to Sidney Chambers' married family life (I get the sense he is, too). I appreciate the way these show the constant shifting balance between his work with the church, his faith, his family, and his mystery solving, and how he has to grapple with letting parts of his identity slip loose from his grasp as others clamor for attention. I think that's actually an important, deeper story about faith practice.
