A novel by Izzie Harper
A poisoned chemist. A family vineyard under threat. Three women sleuths.
Ellie Blix was craving a quiet summer but documentary-makers have descended on the windmill and are causing chaos.
Then, a local is found dead on her towel at the end of the annual barbecue on the beach, and the village is plunged into shock. The dead woman is a former chemistry teacher from the local school who has just beaten seasoned professionals in a prestigious wine-making prize.
When Ellie's daughter, Zoe, learns her favourite teacher recently received a sinister parcel, she's sure the death is suspicious, and is determined to investigate.
Then an anonymous caller reveals shattering information on local radio about the windmill's history, and Ellie wonders if there's a connection between her family home and the murder on the beach.
But who is the caller? And what secret agreements did the historic windmill owners have?
When a second parcel is received by Ellie herself, she realises that Blix Investigators have fallen for a deadly trap. And the killer is closing in...
