Astrologer and Private Investigator Jo Hughes is at a christening when she receives a call from her oldest friend.

She’s found a body in the cellar of a local pub. And they’ve been dead a while.

Jo has her first case as a solo PI.

The victim is identified as Leah Ellerman, a local landlady who was renovating the canalside cottages opposite the pub. She’s been dead for two weeks. So why hasn’t anyone reported her missing?

Leah was evicting her tenants so she could skyrocket the rent. And this wasn’t taken well by the local community . . .

So it’s not a case of who wanted her dead, but who succeeded.

Jo must watch her back. It’s clear that the culprit will do anything to keep their secrets buried . . .

Perfect for fans of Faith Martin, Hannah Hendy, Ian Moore, Lis Howell, L.J. Ross, Rachel McLean, Cathy Ace or Richard Osman.
