A novel by

 
 
He says he's innocent, but he won't say where he was that fateful night...

Stiltley Manor, Oxfordshire. Lowe finds one of the guests, Norman Cassell, has been murdered, stabbed, and abandoned in the sunken garden. Nobody knows what he was doing alone in the garden in the middle of the night, or where the weapon might be.

For the police, this is an open and shut case. They believe Lowe's friend's son quarreled with Cassell over his girlfriend, and the young man lashed out. Lowe is eventually convinced otherwise, but why won't he admit where he was that fateful night? Can Lowe solve the case before an innocent man faces the gallows?

The Three Gnomes is the most thrilling and difficult Trevor Lowe case yet.
