Publisher's Synopsis
The scene is set.
An isolated country estate, where eight budding new writers
are attending a seminar hosted by best-selling author Frances Davenport
in order to try and improve their skills.
Before the first class has finished, a heinous murder takes place
in the grounds of the estate. The police are sent for and begin questioning
everyone in attendance. Far away from the city and all its resources,
Detective Sergeant Ballard must use his "little grey cells" to unravel the
mystery and solve the murder.
With no less than twelve potential suspects - each with a motive
for the murder, yet all seeming, on the surface, to have cast-iron
alibis - D.S. Ballard is about to face the greatest challenge of his career!
A modern day murder mystery by Heidi Klose, author of "Darkness Falls
on Niagara" and "To Die For," lovingly written in the traditional style of
Dame Agatha Christie.
