Quiet as a Nun: A Jemima Shore Mystery

Antonia Fraser

When a murder takes place in a secluded tower at Blessed Eleanor's Convent in Sussex and the victim is an old school friend, Britain's most popular TV reporter Jemima Shore finds herself in the middle of a disturbing puzzle. The dead woman, a nun, was to inherit one of the largest fortunes in Britain.

Jemima walks into the eye of a worldly storm of fear -- and the more she learns, the clearer it becomes that more lives, including her own, are being threatened.

Quiet as a Nun was a PBS Mystery! television presentation.
