Publisher's Synopsis
Elise Walker's married life is about to change forever!...
When 53-year-old Elise Walker returns home after a day at the office to find her husband Gerald dead of a heart attack, she doesn't expect a visit from the police with revelations about Gerald's secret life. Soon, however, her own life takes a definite turn for the surreal, with missing loot, online crime and curious neighbours the least of her problems. Not to mention dealing with never-ending funeral arrangements and staying on top of her job. Thank goodness then for the support of her ever-reliable boss, Hugh. But will even he turn against her when she contacts Gerald's former gang members to find out more? And what is the real significance of the note Gerald left her? Most important of all, if Elise ever finds the money, will she be able to keep it? Readers are loving The Gangster's Wife, a quirky crime comedy perfect for British humour fans. "It made me laugh so much! Elise was just fantastic as she manages in a perfectly "Surrey" way to cope with being a widow and with finding out her late husband was a criminal. Just brilliant. I could not stop reading." (5-star Amazon review) "A very well written and readable book." (5-star Amazon review) "This is a delight. Thoroughly enjoyed all the characters, even the gangsters." (4-star Amazon review) "Another good read from Anne Brooke. Nice reading to put your feet up and have a cuppa with." (4-star Amazon review)
