DEATH ON THE DOWNS by SIMON BRETT - Book 2 | The Fethering Mysteries
Meet Carole Seddon, a straitlaced divorcee, and Jude, the fun-loving free spirit next door. Neighbours, frenemies — and now, an unbeatable sleuthing duo!
One murder. Three missing women. A sleepy little village where everyone’s a suspect.
When Carole Seddon is feeling lonesome, there’s only one thing for it: a bracing walk across the South Downs. She drives to the tiny village of Weldisham, pulls on her most sensible footwear and heads out into the wilderness — following a twisty trail into peril!
When the rain begins to bucket down, Carole finds shelter in a dilapidated old barn. But its ramshackle roof hides a grisly secret — a human skeleton!
The dishy village sergeant is shocked but not surprised. The women of Weldisham have a habit of disappearing recently. He casually mentions the name of the latest victim. With a jolt, Carole realises it’s someone she knows. Well, a friend of her sort-of friend Jude. And that’s close enough in Carole’s book.
But she’ll have to move fast to unravel the mystery.
Someone out there is watching her every move. And they don’t appreciate her snooping one little bit . . .
