Synopsis
Sister Agnes is about to take her final vows, but is worried about giving up all her earthly possessions. If she ever leaves the convent, how would she survive with no home and no finances? However Agnes's concerns are put into perspective when Walker McFadden, a lodger at the hostel for addicts in London where she works, is found dead. Believing the death to be no accident, Agnes is determined to find the killer. When she stumbles on Walker's writings of horror and revenge, Agnes feels she is beginning to pick up the trail of truth.

Agnes needs to decide whether she wants to take her final vows and divest herself of all her property. But she is distracted by the murder of one of the inmates at the hostel for the homeless where she works. Andy was a soldier in the Falklands war and has never recovered from his experiences during the conflict. Agnes feels the person the police have as chief suspect may not have committed the crime and the dead man's friends and relatives think the same. By determined investigation Agnes uncovers a web of relationships and old quarrels which could have had more to do with the killing than anyone wants to admit. Agnes' two friends, Father Julius and Athena, also face their own crossroads adding to the tension. This is a well plotted story with plenty of incident. Characters develop over the series and there are always more issues at stake than the simple question of who done it. I really enjoy this well written, humorous and at times poignant series and this episode is well up to standard.
