Meet Kate. Nurse turned detective. Used to dealing with death. But not murder.

_______________________

As a favour to her friend Hubert, owner of Humberstone’s Funeral Directors, Kate Kinsella is preparing ninety-two-year-old Ivy’s body for the chapel of rest.

For a former nurse, Kate isn’t fazed by dead bodies — until she discovers the finger-mark shaped bruises on Ivy’s legs.

Everyone assumed Ivy died of natural causes. But now her carer is saying she was behaving out of character in the days before she died.

Then an eighteen-year-old girl is found battered to death in her garden shed.

The once-quiet town of Longborough is in uproar. Violent crimes like these aren’t supposed to happen here.

Could the two cases be connected? It’s up to Kate to find out . . .
