Meet Ellie Quicke. Devoted cat lady, tea addict, recent widow — and now amateur sleuth!
Ellie can’t say no to a friend in need. And that’s where all her woes begin . . .
Angelica Shore is young, charming and homeless. When Ellie hears how she’s been kicked out — by her uncaring mum — she offers teary Angelica a place to stay.
But Ellie’s kindness soon comes back to bite her.
Angelica may be an angel by name. But she’s a devil by nature! A shameless party girl, she loves late nights, loud music and bad company. What she gets up to on her wild nights out is a mystery to Ellie. Until . . .
The neighbours come home to find their flat has been trashed. By a crowd of ravers. One of whom didn’t live to see the end of the night.
Out in the back garden, a grisly surprise awaits . . . The body of a young woman, lying in the shrubbery.
Everyone’s ready to point the finger at Angelica. But she swears she’s innocent and, for reasons she can’t fathom, Ellie’s inclined to believe her.
But Ellie has been taken in by Angelica’s crocodile tears once before.
What if she’s got it wrong again?
Meet your next favourite sleuth in this wonderfully witty whodunnit.
