Fifth in the series we find eleven year old Flavia de Luce ensconced in a murder mystery.  This time she’s at St. Tancred’s during the week preceding Easter.  Upon the 500th anniversary death of St. Tancred’s patron saint, the community is preparing to open his tomb.  Flavia is so excited at the anticipation of such an event.  Neither she nor anyone else is expecting to find Mr. Collicutt, the church organist, dead in the crypt   With chemistry, Flavia’s passion, she pulls the clues together and helps solve the mystery.  I think this is the best Bradley offers us so far in this fun English mystery series set in Bishop’s Lacey, a quaint village, of the mid-20th century.
