Summary
All the Reverend Francis Oughterard had ever wanted was some peace and quiet, instead he becomes entangled in a nightmare world of accidental murder, predatory female parishioners, officious policemen and a drunken bishop. As the vicar’s life spirals out of control it is his supercilious cat, Maurice, and bone obsessed hound, Bouncer, who save the day.
