To Perish in Penzance
by Jeanne M Dams

AN ENCHANTING COZY MYSTERY FROM A BESTSELLING AUTHOR

A TRIP TO CORNWALL TO SOLVE A DECADES-OLD MYSTERY

Penzance 1968: She was about twenty, with long blond hair, and her body was found a few days after she fell from the cliffs to her death on the rocks below. The action of the water and sea life made circulating a picture of her impossible, but even with a description, no one identified her. No one reported a young woman missing from any of the nearby villages.

She was fashionably dressed, obviously out for a night of partying. All the police knew was her approximate age, that she’d had a child a few months before she died, and that she weighed only about ninety pounds. The cliff was miles from anywhere. Her death is a mystery that’s haunted Alan, Dorothy Martin’s now-retired Chief Constable husband, ever since. It was his first murder case as a young detective.

So Dorothy and Alan head down to picturesque Penzance. Dorothy is going to get to the bottom of the mystery for Alan . . . and uncovers a new one while she’s at it, full of dark secrets and danger.

Perfect for fans of Stella Cameron, Faith Martin, Agatha Christie, Frances Evesham, Betty Rowlands, or M.C. Beaton.
