"Bury Her Deep"

"Bury Her Deep" is another Dandy Gilver novel by Catriona McPherson.  Dandy's husband's friend, the widowed Reverend Mr. Tait, has heard of her sleuthing skills (even if her husband has remained blissfully unaware) and asks her to come stay with him and his adult daughter to do some sleuthing for him.

Dandy's cover story is that she's going to present a program on budgeting at a meeting of the Rural Women's Institute so is coming to attend a meeting and do some research among its members.  However, her real purpose is to discover who has been preying on these women as they walk home from their monthly meetings and why some of them will not even admit that they've been attacked.

Although she takes Alec into her confidence, she assures him she doesn't need his help and he should just stay at home because his new house requires his attention.  Does he listen?  No ...he shows up in disguise and together they uncover what has really been going on in Rev. Tait's parish.

Although I find it easy to put down a Dandy Gilver mystery rather than having to stay up to all hours finishing it, I rarely figure out who the villain is or why!  I suspect that's why I keep reading them.....pazt
