But her fury quickly turns to dismay when her damaged mallet is linked to the murder of the Bowls Club president whose body is found on her croquet court.
Hettie decides she’d better uncover some other likely suspects quick smart because apart from saving herself from a prison sentence, dragging the Parke name into a murder investigation is doing nothing for her fractured relationship with her mother.
