Death at Sycamore House - Betty Rowlands

Descriere Death at Sycamore House - Betty Rowlands

Cream tea, a curious cat... and a rather mysterious murder? It's been a quiet few weeks on the crime front in Somerset and Sukey Reynolds is starting to wonder if all the villains have gone on holiday. Although Sukey loves solving crimes, she's happy to have a bit of extra time to spend with the handsome journalist who lives just around the corner... But when she is summoned to charming Sycamore House it seems that Sukey has tempted fate. Sitting amongst well-tended grounds bordered by trees, with a view of rolling hills in the distance, this stylish set of apartments is usually home to little more than spirited disagreements between members of the neighbourhood committee. Until the body of Fenella Tremaine, one of their residents, is discovered by the caretaker in the garden... The police quickly close in on Marcus Ellerman, a neighbour and colleague of Fenella's, with whom she often crossed swords, both in and out of the office. When his distinctive ornamental dagger is found to be the murder weapon, the case seems closed. But Sukey has a hunch that the police are barking up the wrong tree and decides to dig deeper into Fenella's past. Sukey's investigations turn up an estranged daughter, Fenella's secret affair with the owner of a local care home, and a neighbour's cat with a sixth sense for danger. But who is the killer? Can Sukey unmask the true villain of Sycamore House, before any more lives are lost? Can't get enough of murder mysteries by Agatha Christie, P.D. James and Faith Martin? Then you'll love this absolutely unputdownable whodunnit from the queen of cozy crime! This book was previously published as Unnatural Wastage. Readers love Death at Sycamore House!
