Murder in the Garden

de Veronica Heley

An Ellie Quicke mystery The body of a young girl is found in next door’s neglected garden to the horror of the occupiers, who are great friends of Ellie’s. How long has the body been there, and who is it? Ellie Quicke seems to be the only person who has known all the families who lived in that house – a house that seems to attract misery. Tracking down her memories of loud party-givers and possible con men among others, Ellie is forced to confront the tragedies of her own life long ago, and wonders if she was a bad neighbour. While the body gives up its secrets, the killers haunt the vicinity, determined to find someone else upon whom to pin the murder.
