Two short cosy mysteries featuring a young priest in a Sicilian parish -- perfect for fans of Chesterton's Father Brown, Jan Karon's Mitford series and the Grantchester mysteries.

A light, humorous mystery with likable main characters and a plot that kept my attention. Great setting! -- Amazon review by Zack B.
I love Father Roberto. His character is the best. Just a great fun read. I want more! -- Amazon review by Becca.

The Holiday Heist:
When young Sicilian Catholic priest Father Roberto finds an envelope full of cash lying on the floor by the church's nativity scene, he assumes it's a Christmas donation for his cash-strapped parish.
But it turns out that the unexpected windfall isn't for keeping, and it lands the inexperienced priest in a heap of trouble just at the parish's busiest time of year -- the run-up to Christmas. Only by finding the real culprits can Father Roberto rid himself of the suspicion of robbery and get back to doing the job he loves.
The Missing Money:
In the seminary, nobody taught Father Roberto how to take a large group of children safely across a busy Palermo road. But as the young priest learns the ropes of being a children's summer camp leader for the parish, an unexpected problem emerges: the money put aside for the children's activities keeps disappearing.
Just as Roberto believes he's found the culprit, he discovers that the innocent are guilty and the guilty are innocent.

Also available in paperback and large print paperback.
