From the world of Father Brown, comes the First Series of 'The Sister Boniface Mysteries'.
The Sister Boniface Mysteries is set in 1960s rural Warwickshire and follows the investigations of Sister Boniface, Bride of Christ, vintner, and Crime Scene Investigator. Police forensics is rudimentary by today’s standards.
DNA is yet to be discovered. Blood testing can take days. The notion of trace evidence is in its infancy and the preservation of crime scenes is shockingIy hit and miss. Fortunately the Great Slaughter ConstabuIary has a secret weapon in its fight against crime.
Hidden deep in the countryside is St Vincent’s Convent, a smaIl community of wine making nuns where ensconced in a Iaboratory is Sister Boniface. An lQ of 156 and a PHD in forensic science, plus an addiction to popuIar detective fiction and a fuIIy equipped crime Iaboratory make Boniface an invaluable aid to Police investigations.
Mud, bIood, stains, hairs and fibres. If there is evidence to be found Boniface wilI find it. Poisons, trace evidence, bIood stains, etymology. She’s more up to speed on the Iatest forensic techniques than the PoIice.
ln her roIe as official Police Scientific Advisor, Boniface works aIongside the dashing Detective lnspector Sam GiIIespie and Felix Livingstone, a high-fIying Bermudian Detective Sergeant. FeIix was supposed to be on secondment to the Metropolitan PoIice but an administrative error Iands him in Great Slaughter.
A cast of eccentric local characters combined with his boss’s reliance on a nun leave him reeling. AIthough as Sam points out, that "Nun" ensures they have the highest cIean-up rate in the county. |
