LOVE MISS MARPLE? THEN MEET HONEY DRIVER!
There’s something decidedly sinister about the winner of Bath’s best window display . . . Is it the hangman’s noose or the dead body?
Honey Driver is reluctant about judging Bath’s best window display. But even she can see that the exquisite highwayman scene in the window of gentleman tailor Pauling and Tern, complete with hangman’s noose, is the outright winner.
Then just hours after accepting his prize, owner Nigel Tern is found hanging dead in his own display. Murdered.
A popular ladies’ man and savvy business owner, there’s no shortage of angry ex-lovers and jealous shopkeepers with a grudge against Nigel — including his own father.
Mr Tern Senior seems to have a solid alibi, but his lack of emotion over his son’s death is puzzling.
But before Honey and her detective fiancé Steve can investigate further, Steve’s daughter announces she’s engaged to her brand-new boyfriend, Andrew.
Honey can’t shake the feeling that Andrew’s not who he says he is . . .
Can Honey figure out the truth behind Andrew, and crack the case of Nigel Tern’s murder?
Fans of Faith Martin, Jane Adams, Frances Evesham, M.C. Beaton, Clare Chase or Jeanne M. Dams will love this addictive cozy mystery!
MEET HONEY DRIVER
As the boss at a Bath hotel, Honey Driver is in charge one day and washing dishes the next.
