A really intense classic mystery concerning a brutal double murder in a church. The church secretary is the narrator and she helps the local policeman figure out how the two victims, a young woman and an elderly man, are connected–and which of the two was the real target. Was it the vivacious flirt or the quiet janitor with an unexpectedly large bank account?

Nice amount of twists against a backdrop of home front in the late years of WW2.
