Bloodshed in the Bookshop

Carole Seddon adores gossip. Not that she’d ever let anyone know. She finds the best way to learn the goings on in the English seaside village of Fethering is via her sociable neighbour, Jude. After an unpleasant visit to the local bookshop, Carole’s curious to learn why the usually lovely owner is letting her obnoxious lump of a husband destroy her business?

Recently retired Roly Strickland is taking over his wife’s dream of a quaint country bookstore with one of his own – The Blood Shed. But after a particularly fraught author event showcasing just how unsuited Roly is to bookselling, Jude makes a horrific discovery.

Stabbed in the back behind a bloody curtain is Roly. With so many suspects, Jude and Carole once again must don their sleuthing caps to investigate a murder in the crime section!
