Publisher's Synopsis
There Was an Old Woman is a penetrating novel of psychological suspense from an Edgar-Award-nominated author. The blessing and curse of small neighbourhoods is knowing everything about your neighbours, and Evie, suspicious and concerned about her mother, rekindles a relationship with the 90-year-old Mina. Evie needs help figuring out what's been going on with her mother - and the more Evie digs into what her mother's been up to over the past few months, the more a bigger - and more sinister - story begins to unfold.
