More than Murder
When Julia’s flamboyant and spirited half-sister, Frankie, returns to Little Clarsden to claim her share of Rose Cottage, left to them by their Aunt Lucy, she is met with a frosty reception from Julia, who still harbours an old grievance.
At the Little Clarsden Autumn Fete, Frankie wins two tickets to a Murder Weekend Event at Medfield House Estate in the rolling hills of Somerset. Hoping to mend her fractured relationship with her sister, Frankie invites Julia to join her. The playful intrigue turns deadly when they stumble upon a real corpse.
With a killer on the loose, a body that vanishes without a trace, and trust in short supply, Frankie and Julia must set aside their differences to uncover the truth.
Can the sisters solve this mystery before they become the next victims?

The Body that Floats
Julia, a retired head teacher with a fondness for order, and her half-sister Frankie, who believes that rules are more like vague suggestions, are back—this time in the picturesque Cornish village of Portscatho.
Their morning swim off Tatum’s beach is rudely interrupted by a floating corpse. The police declare the death accidental, but the sisters have other ideas.
Soon, they’re knee-deep in smugglers’ tunnels, taking a bumpy ride in the back of a builder’s van, and facing down a gun-toting local with questionable fashion choices.
Can the sisters keep their heads above water long enough to uncover the truth or will the killer make sure they sink without a trace?
The Body That Floats – the mystery’s deep, the water’s cold, and the locals are packing more than just fishing gear.
“Witty, entertaining and intriguing, a fabulous second instalment in this delightful mystery series.”
