The Judge at Saint Jane’s
by Lis Howell

A COZY MURDER MYSTERY SET IN A PICTURESQUE CUMBRIAN VILLAGE.

It’s a glorious autumn evening in Tarnfield when Deborah Arbiter falls to her death.

What was she doing on the roof of her old Georgian country house, St Jane’s?

People think Deborah was up there inspecting a leak. But Suzy Spencer doesn’t believe the seventy-year-old was doing DIY.

Deborah gave up a glittering career in law to start a women’s refuge in her beautiful family home.

Then when one of Suzy’s friends disappears, she uncovers a shocking connection to Deborah and St Jane’s.

One woman falls to her death at St Jane’s. One woman never arrives.

Can Suzy Spencer get to the bottom of these sinister goings-on before anyone else pays the ultimate price?

A new series of cozy mysteries full of red herrings and twists and turns.

Perfect for fans of Rhys Bowen, Richard Osman, Jeanne M. Dams, Frances Evesham, Simon Brett, Margaret Mayhew, Jane Adams, Betty Rowlands and M.C. Beaton.
