The seaside can be murder!
Detective Sgt Flynn Moran is on secondment from the Metropolitan Police in his home town of Muddlebay. Not long after Flynn arrives, the Mayor of Muddlebay is found to have overdosed on atropine. But was it accidental, or deliberate?
Even though nothing ever happens in Muddlebay, Flynn teams up with his old friend Mabel Heggarty, the local librarian, to investigate the death. She knows practically everyone in the town and pretty much everything about them, mostly gleaned from the books they read. Oh, and not forgetting that she listens from behind the stacks to what is the lifeblood of any small town - gossip.
Did someone want the Mayor dead?
And could that be why a local councillor is overheard plotting to be the next incumbent?
Wendy Cartmell is well known for her bestselling, Sgt Major Crane mysteries and more recently her DI Jo Wolfe supernatural crime thrillers. She'd always had an idea for a cozy mystery series bubbling away in the background and the result is this introductory novella to the Muddlebay mysteries. Think Murder, She Wrote, Midsomer Murders and a dollop of humour, all rolled into one! Look out for them in audiobook, as well as eBook and paperback.
Praise for Wendy Cartmell...
