"Following Monty and Father Burke through the back streets, blues clubs and waterfront district of 1992 Halifax in search of the truth is an enjoyable quest . . . Emery skillfully blends homicide with wit, music, theology, quirky characters and a Nova Scotian atmosphere."

In the seventh book of the deftly written Collins-Burke Mystery series, Father Brennan Burke's patience is pushed to the limit when a young woman announces to the world that the Virgin Mary has appeared to her in the churchyard, and hordes of pilgrims, souvenir hawkers, and reporters converge on the scene. But, as unwelcome as these guests may be, they pale in comparison to yet another aggravation in Father Burke's life, a controversial talk show host who clashes with Burke upon arriving in town. Events take a darker turn when a body is found at the apparition site, and the talk show host is picked up for the murder. There is enough aggravation to go around, as Monty Collins learns when he takes on the loud-mouthed TV man as a client. Monty and Brennan both have a stake in uncovering the truth about the murder, and they both learn disturbing things about the accused man and other suspects in the case. Neither man can talk to the other about what he has learned, however, due to solicitorâ??client confidentiality on one side, the seal of the confessional on the other.… (mehr)

Blood on a Saint. Anne Emery. 2013. Well, at least Monty Collins and Father Brennan Burke are back in Halifax and at least Normie barely figures in the plot. A young woman claims she has seen the Virgin in front of Father Burke’s church and crowds gather to the point that it has become a problem for the church. Another young woman also claims to see a vision. This young woman is murdered in front of the church. A sleaze bag talk show host is accused, and Monty is appointed to defend him. Father Burke hears something in the confessional that my affect the case but he cannot reveal it. The plot moves slowly and ambles through Monty’s troubled marriage, his rock band, Burke’s love for traditional church music, and Burke’s drinking before it is resolved. This book is for readers of the previous Collins-Burke novels ( )
