Captivating Whodunnit Murder Mystery!


Join the fast growing number of readers of POISON, CURSED and BLOOD MOON, and curl up with this English compelling whodunnit. CURSED is the second in the series of the Cambridge Murder Mysteries.

The porters at All Saints' College, Cambridge, feel under threat. Witchy spells, hate mail and buckets of flour over the Porters' Lodge. Are these just harmless student pranks or are they in real danger? Inspector Abley's mind is elsewhere, so Professor Elizabeth Green starts to dig out clues to help Sergeant Lemon, but can't solve the mystery before the death of a porter.

With famous stones also going missing, will Professor Green be able to unravel the mystery before another porter dies? She enlists the help of her hapless grandson Godric...

Readers who love a traditional English backdrop, will enjoy Cursed as Cambridge bleeds through every page. The Cambridge Murder Mysteries are set in the heart of Cambridge, England, featuring a vegan and animal loving sleuth Elizabeth Green, and her sidekicks Inspector Abley and grandson, Godric.

Fans of Agatha Christie and P.D. James will love this story, as it celebrates everything traditional and eccentric about some of the lives and customs in the heart of the historic city of Cambridge; characters are quite simply caught up in the majesty of this most beautiful place in England. If you enjoy intelligent storytelling, strong and vulnerable characters with twists and turns of plot, then you'll love this. Anyone who loves Colin Dexter's Inspector Morse may also enjoy the college setting and puzzles of the Cambridge Murder Mysteries.

Hugely popular local Cambridge author makes historic city in England leap off the page with CURSED, this gripping novel, the second in the Cambridge Murder Mystery Series.
And what of Professor Elizabeth Green?...
In her fifties, this female protagonist is quintessentially English. An eccentric professor in her ivory tower, she maintains a sharp wit, yet is flawed by her inability to connect well with people, instead giving off a cold, opinionated and sometimes acerbic air. Though very kind to all animals (dogs, cats and the rest!) - a vegan - and a great gardener, in truth she keeps her friends close, and only lets a few dear people into her world.
And what of the setting?...
CURSED, like POISON, is set in Cambridge. The murder mystery takes place in this city in England which features heavily. If you like Cambridge, either you live there or may have visited, or even used to study there, then this story involving the female protagonist Elizabeth Green will transport you.

Try CURSED, make a cuppa and put your feet up for a bit of escapism and try to solve the puzzle. And if you like POISON and CURSED, why not try BLOOD MOON, Bk3 of The Cambridge Murder Mysteries series? Bk4 coming soon!
