Description
Nancy Hunter and her grandmother Jane Hunter run the Dedley Endings Bookshop, selling crime, thriller and mystery books, in a small, quiet village where life is often quiet. The arrival of the Roth family's mansion, which has stood empty for thirty years, sets off a stir among the villagers. An engagement party is held, but the festivities are short-lived, as a tragic event unfolds: beautiful Lucy Roth is found dead after being pushed over the first-floor balustrade. Nancy and Jane, both named after famous literary detectives, decide to investigate the murder. As they delve into the mystery, they begin to wonder if they've taken on more than they can handle. The case is a complex one, and the truth behind Lucy's death may be more sinister than initially thought. As a keen crime fiction reader, you'll appreciate the intricate plot and the amateur sleuths' efforts to unravel the truth.
