Book description
New edition of this bestselling murder mystery series that
includes a map of Steeple Martin, cast of characters and a bonus
chapter of the next book in the series.
Middle-aged artist-come-investigator Libby Sarjeant's son Adam has
uncovered a body with his rotovator in Creekmarsh Place, where he is
working as a gardener for TV personality Lewis Osbourne-Walker.
The police seem to think there is no connection with the current
owner but Libby, naturally, can't just leave it at that. With her
psychic friend Fran's mind on other things, Libby has to go it alone.
A murder in London inspires the police to dig deeper and Libby,
determined to help her new friend Lewis, stirs up more mud than Adam's rotovator.
Perfect cosy crime, great descriptions, lovely well-drawn
characters and a plot with so many twists and turns that I thought
everyone was the murderer at some point! A really, really good read.
