A novel by

 
 
A well-known Norfolk author is rumoured to be up to his neck in dark deeds. When his nemesis goes missing, it starts to look like there’s only one person responsible. But is all what it seems? Daisy decides she has to know for sure, and there’s only one way to do that!

“One of the best cozy mystery series I’ve ever read!”

Jolyon Prendegast, a multi-million selling author of gothic horror novels, is Norfolk-based, living in a gothic-style manor not so far from Great Wiltingham. But he’s about to be exposed…

Abbie Drake is an investigative reporter, well known for her devotion to exposing all things suspect. She’s had her teeth into Prendegast for a while, claiming that he didn’t write any of his books.

Her weekly podcast, ‘The Terrier Times’, is followed by a lot of people. At the end of her latest episode she hints that she’s about to expose Prendegast for far darker deeds than she first thought, and she’d reveal all in the next podcast.

That podcast never appears. Already suspicious, the Poppleswick Pensioners take it upon themselves to investigate, visiting the manor to confront the man. Needless to say they don’t get very far, but refusing to give up, things go scarily downhill for the terrible twosome.

In the meantime, Sarah asks Daisy for help with a possibly-missing person Burrows doesn’t have time to look into. That person is Abbie Drake, and she lives in Great Wiltingham.

The plot thickens on two sides… Maisie and Doris become ever more convinced Prendegast is responsible for all kinds of horrors, and as Daisy and Aidan delve into Abbie’s disappearance, those circumstances grow rapidly darker too.

But are the answers fact or fiction? With no hard evidence, Daisy decides there’s only one way to uncover the truth, and it’s not exactly risk-free!

Enjoy!
