From Wikipedia:
A series of books featuring Sister Holiday, “a chain-smoking, heavily tattooed, queer nun, puts her amateur sleuthing skills to the test.”
Douaihy’s debut novel, Scorched Grace: A Sister Holiday Mystery received numerous accolades, including a starred review by Publishers Weekly, which called it a “stunning fiction debut ... briskly plotted master class in character development.” Scorched Grace was twice recognized by The New York Times, as a New York Times Book Review Editors’ Choice, and as a New York Times Best Crime Novel of the Year for 2023. The Guardian twice recognized Scorched Grace as one of the best crime and thriller novels of 2023.
Originally published in hardback by Gillian Flynn Books, the paperback editions are by Pushkin Vertigo/Pushkin Press.
Alias Cactus is used for title type. The blurbs on the paperbacks are in Owners.
