Description:

The bleakly beautiful Norfolk coast, the murder of a local businessman, a suffragette on trial... Sounds like a case for Posie Parker! Valentine’s Day, 1926. When Posie Parker, Private Detective, accidentally runs into an old family acquaintance in the Temple Church, London, she is persuaded to leave town immediately and return to the place of her childhood roots - the beautiful Norfolk coast - to investigate a closed-room murder mystery which local police believe has a foregone conclusion. But have the police got the suspect right? Posie must race against the clock as a Murder Trial is scheduled to begin in just two days’ time. A women’s right’s activist, the courageous Girvan Briskow, will almost certainly face the gallows if she is convicted of her wealthy father-in-law’s murder. Both the murder victim and the chief suspect are already known to Posie from years before, but Posie needs to push aside old hostilities in order to get at the truth. But is the truth too much, and too dark, for her to bear? And is she just imagining it, or is Posie’s presence resented in Norfolk? Is she in danger, here? And why has Richard Lovelace, Posie’s husband and the Chief Commissioner of New Scotland Yard, started acting strangely? A darkly gripping historical murder mystery, which fans of Agatha Christie, T. E. Kinsey, Nicola Upson, Lee Strauss and Verity Bright will adore! To be the first to hear about L.B. Hathaway's new releases sign up for the newsletter at: lbhathaway.com Duration - 5h 15m.
