For the Honorable Daisy Dalrymple Fletcher and her
husband, Detective Chief Inspector Alec Fletcher of
Scotland Yard, a long-awaited seaside vacation becomes a
busman’s holiday when a local Lothario turns up murdered…
but hardly mourned…
Ah, summer! Daisy Dalrymple Fletcher, three months
pregnant and fit as a fiddle, has been anticipating a
quiet getaway with her husband and stepdaughter in the
coastal town of Westcombe. But if death won’t take a
holiday, neither will the Fletchers. And the murder of
town Casanova George Enderby lands Alec in charge of the
investigation and Daisy stubbornly by his side. It’s hard
to find someone who wouldn’t have wanted Enderby dead. The
married pub owner’s scandalous seductions had earned him
the enmity of every jilted lover and cuckolded husband in
town—not to mention the resentment of his long-suffering
wife. But for someone, the insult cut deep enough to kill.
Now, as Daisy delves beneath the gossip and into a small
town’s darkest secrets, the idyllic seaside cliffs,
beautiful beach, and quaint village pub of Westcombe seem
nothing more than a sinister backdrop for a cold-blooded
killer…one who may be closer than she thinks…
