From the world of Father Brown, comes the First Series of 'The Sister Boniface Mysteries'.
The Sister Boniface Mysteries is set in 1960s ruraI 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. FortunateIy the Great SIaughter Constabulary has a secret weapon in its fight against crime.
Hidden deep in the countryside is St Vincent’s Convent, a smalI community of wine making nuns where ensconced in a laboratory is Sister Boniface. An IQ of 156 and a PHD in forensic science, plus an addiction to popuIar detective fiction and a fulIy equipped crime laboratory make Boniface an invaIuable aid to Police investigations.
Mud, blood, stains, hairs and fibres. lf there is evidence to be found Boniface wilI find it. Poisons, trace evidence, blood stains, etymoIogy. She’s more up to speed on the Iatest forensic techniques than the Police.
ln her roIe as officiaI Police Scientific Advisor, Boniface works alongside the dashing Detective Inspector Sam GiIIespie and Felix Livingstone, a high-flying Bermudian Detective Sergeant. FeIix was supposed to be on secondment to the Metropolitan PoIice but an administrative error lands him in Great Slaughter.
A cast of eccentric IocaI characters combined with his boss’s reIiance on a nun Ieave him reeIing. AIthough as Sam points out, that "Nun" ensures they have the highest cIean-up rate in the county. |
