Donât miss Faith Martinâs fiendishly clever new novel, Murder by Candlelight, set in the 1920s and described as âthe perfect village mysteryâ by J.M. Hall
âFiendishly clever⊠A thoroughly absorbing, gripping readâ. Clare Chase
Oxford, 1960. In the glorious sunshine of Oxford, on a day when everyone should be celebrating, tragedy strikes when a university student is found floating in the river, dead.
Probationary WPC Trudy Loveday finds herself paired with coroner Clement Ryder to investigate and it soon becomes clear that this case is not going to be easy.
The witnesses all refuse to give a straight answer, each new lead sends them in a new direction and tales of other missing youngsters add further mystery to the investigation.
One thing is certain though, something doesnât seem quite right about the universityâs most popular studentâŠ.
A gripping, twisty cozy crime novel that you won't be able to put down. Perfect for fans of Agatha Christie, Richard Osman and M.C. Beaton.
