Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. This is the fourth in a five book series featuring the Reverend Francis Oughterard,who in book one murdered a member of his flock with unfortunate results. His long -suffering pets Bouncer the dog and Maurice the cat spend most of their time protecting the hapless vicar from the clutches of the police and a varied selection of crooks. For me the humor of these stories relies on the (mostly successful)efforts of Bouncer and Maurice rather than on the human characters. I have to say that the first in the series ' A Load of Old Bones' was by far the best of the lot and the others,although not without merit,seem to lack the laugh- aloud element of the earlier book. This one finds the Reverend gentleman and assorted crooks and clergy (plus cat and dog) setting off for a holiday to France. The trip soon becomes completely chaotic and much more than the gentle break that the Reverend gentleman had hoped for. no reviews | add a review

This fourth addition of the series weaves yet another tangled web for the good Reverend. The story line is perfect and the characters remain fresh and intriguing.
Love the dog and the cat. ( )
