Baroness Troutbeck--"Jack" to her friends--is the hard-drinking, hard-living lady of "a certain age" who stars in Ruth Dudley Edward's series of comic mysteries. In
Murder in a Cathedral, the seventh installment, Jack persuades her impecunious friend Robert Amiss to take a job with her pal Canon Flubert, inadvertently sending him into a firestorm of ecclesiastical scandal: in a church run by gay priests, witches, and New Age enthusiasts, the appointment of a fundamentalist dean is anathema. When the dean turns up dead, everyone's a suspect. Bad enough that Amiss has to cope with the scandal, but soon he also has the Baroness on his hands in a madcap search for the Cathedral killer.
From Library Journal
The new bishop of Westonbury Cathedral, an institution long dominated by a cadre of High-Church gays, wishes to avoid ugly confrontation when an intolerant new American dean arrives. The bishop confides in Baroness Troutbeck, who sends series sleuth Robert Amiss (e.g., Ten Lords a-Leaping, LJ 7/96) to the rescue?but not in time to prevent murder. An appealing and humorous series.
