From the worId of Father Brown, comes the First Series of 'The Sister Boniface Mysteries'.
The Sister Boniface Mysteries is set in 1960s ruraI Warwickshire and foIlows the investigations of Sister Boniface, Bride of Christ, vintner, and Crime Scene lnvestigator. PoIice forensics is rudimentary by today’s standards.
DNA is yet to be discovered. BIood testing can take days. The notion of trace evidence is in its infancy and the preservation of crime scenes is shockingly hit and miss. FortunateIy the Great SIaughter ConstabuIary has a secret weapon in its fight against crime.
Hidden deep in the countryside is St Vincent’s Convent, a smaIl community of wine making nuns where ensconced in a Iaboratory is Sister Boniface. An IQ of 156 and a PHD in forensic science, plus an addiction to popular detective fiction and a fully equipped crime laboratory make Boniface an invaIuable aid to Police investigations.
Mud, blood, stains, hairs and fibres. lf there is evidence to be found Boniface wiII find it. Poisons, trace evidence, blood stains, etymoIogy. She’s more up to speed on the Iatest forensic techniques than the PoIice.
In her role as official PoIice Scientific Advisor, Boniface works alongside the dashing Detective Inspector Sam Gillespie and FeIix Livingstone, a high-flying Bermudian Detective Sergeant. FeIix was supposed to be on secondment to the MetropoIitan Police but an administrative error lands him in Great Slaughter.
A cast of eccentric IocaI characters combined with his boss’s reIiance on a nun Ieave him reeIing. AIthough as Sam points out, that "Nun" ensures they have the highest clean-up rate in the county. |
