The Priest Hole
(2026)(The third book in the Fane and Blackwood Mystery series)
A novel by A G Barnett
A celebrated surgeon is found dead in the priest hole of a Tudor manor.
The man arrested for the murder is the only person who can save Roderick Fane's life.
Fane has travelled to Warwickshire for a consultation he has put off for a decade. The surgeon who agreed to see him is now in a police cell. The only other surgeon who could have performed the operation is the corpse.
Nell Blackwood must unpick a household of old loyalties and careful silences, while the detective she relies on needs a particular answer for the first time in his career. The question is no longer whether she can solve the case. It's whether she can trust him while she does it.
The Priest Hole is the third book in the Fane & Blackwood Mysteries — a literary whodunnit series set in 1920s England. Perfect for fans of Agatha Christie and Anthony Horowitz.
Genre: Mystery
