Meet Ellie Quicke. Devoted cat lady, tea addict, recent widow — and now amateur sleuth!
Ellie’s reputation as Ealing’s answer to Miss Marple is starting to precede her. Now Constable Milburn comes knocking, wanting Ellie’s help with more police business.
Ellie’s neighbours, lonely ladies of a certain age, are dropping like flies. Three have been found dead in recent weeks. It looks like they overdosed on painkillers. But Ellie smells a rat.
Especially when an outraged niece comes out of the woodwork. She says there’s no way her aunt could’ve got her hands on the pills that killed her.
Not without a helping hand . . .
Can Ellie solve the case — before she becomes the next victim to shuffle off her mortal coil?
Meet your next favourite sleuth in this wonderfully witty whodunnit.
Fans of the Reverend Richard Coles, Fiona Leitch, The Thursday Murder Club, Sarah Yarwood-Lovett, Agatha Christie, Janice Hallett, Peter Boland and Simon Brett will be hooked from the very first page!
