Eve Holdsworth is living her quintessential English dream in a
picturesque village in the countryside. Meeting an attractive
stranger adds to the appeal.
But
Ben Dryden is a pariah in Eve’s new neighbourhood, since his wife
was murdered five
years ago, and he was the only suspect. Eve, who
is absolutely sure someone as charming as Ben could never be a
killer, is determined to solve the case and clear Ben’s name, even
if it’s against his will.
Soon
enough Eve finds herself in deep waters, and with her life at stake,
she can only pray that her romantic notions won’t be the end of her
…
Carmen
has spent most of her life with ink on her fingers and a dangerously
high pile of books and newspapers by her side.
She
has worked as a newspaper reporter on two continents and always
dreamt of becoming a novelist and screenwriter.
When
she found herself crouched under her dining table, typing away on a
novel between two earthquakes in Christchurch, New Zealand, she
realised she was hooked for life.
The
shaken but stirring novel made it to the longlist of the Mslexia
competition, and her next book and first mystery, The Case Of The
Missing Bride, was a finalist in the Malice Domestic competition in a
year without a winner.
Carmen
was born in Hamburg, Germany, but had planned on emigrating since she
was five years old. She first moved to New Zealand and now lives in
York, UK, with her daughter, cat, and sometimes her seafaring husband
comes home.
