Pages beginning to age-tone else fine in fine dust jacket, not price clipped, in protective mylar cover. SIGNED COPY, signature only, by the author on the title page. Humorous. Westonbury Cathedral has been dominated by a clique of High-Church gays, so when Norman Cooper, an austere, intolerant evangelist is appointed dean, there is shock, outrage and fear. David Elworthy, the gentile and politically innocent new bishop, is distraught at the prospect of warfare between the factions and cries on the shoulder of his old friend, the redoubable Baroness Troutbeck, who forces her unofficial troubleshooter, Robert Amiss, to move into the bishop's palace. Soon there is a clerical corpse in the cathedral. Signed by Author. Book. Seller Inventory # 014704
