Helpful Score: 2

As a minister's wife, I was interested in a mystery in which the amateur is also married to a minister. The mystery did not disappoint and the characters were charming and fascinating. Even the busybody in the title, who is loved by some and hated by others, is made human and understandable.

Aggie's husband is a minister of a Unitarian-Universalist church so there is no "religion" in the story. I did identify very strongly with Aggie's situation of raising children in the fishbowl of the parish.

This is the first of a series and I will definitely look for the second, out in December 2006.
