A Nun in the Closet

When Sister John and Sister Hyacinth investigate an unexpected legacy in the form of a house, they find more mysterious matters than the bequest itself. Alexander has caught the spirit of this story admirably. She takes on the nonsensical happenings at a gallop. The character of each nun is clearly differentiated. There can be no question as to who is speaking: the gruff, herbalist sister or her gentle, highly spiritual companion. The colorful presences of migrant workers, Mafioso and Indian sages are immediate. Gilman and Alexander offer rollicking good fun. S.B.S. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine
