Julia Spencer-Fleming Series

Along with the Donna Leon series I described in an earlier post, I’m reading this mystery series by Julia Spencer-Fleming. The main characters are Clare Fergusson, who is an Episcopalian reverend, and Russ Van Alstyne, who is the police chief. It’s set in a small town in upstate New York.

I’m not divulging any secrets to say that Clare and Russ find themselves solving mysteries together and becoming very emotionally attached to each other. Except that Russ is married – although we know that his wife is going to be killed in the series. Still, I can’t wait to keep reading to find out what happens next.
