OP I am reading P.D. James “Death in Holy Orders” (New York: Ballantine, 2001), which is excellent. In it, she uses the adjective "tenebrous" to describe a chapel which is poorly lit. Having only recently made reference to the Holy Week liturgy of Tenebrae on this board, I was comfy with the baroness' use of the term.
