RAFFERTY & LLEWELLYN BRITISH MYSTERY SERIES #2

'I have fallen in love with her slow-paced but interesting books.'

For those who like mysteries, with Detectives who have a sense of humour.

When beautiful Barbara Longman is found murdered in a meadow, uprooted wildflowers strewn about her, and, in her hand, a single marigold, British Detective Joe Rafferty at first believes the murder may be the work of the serial killer over the county border in Suffolk.

But then he meets the victim's family—and after liaising with the Suffolk police, he rapidly comes to believe that the mystery killing is the work of a copycat...one much closer to home; someone among the descendants of the long-dead family patriarch, Maximillian Shore.

Everyone, it seems, had a motive: Henry the grieving widower; the victim's brother-in-law, Charles Shore the ruthless tycoon; Henry's first wife the Bohemian Anne, who has lost the custody of her teenage son, to the saintly Barbara.

Even the long-dead patriarch, Maximillian Shore, seems, to Rafferty, to have some involvement in the murder, though how, or why, Rafferty doesn't understand until he finally grasps the truth behind the reasons for the killing. A truth sad and dreadful and which had been evident from the start, if only he had had the eyes to see.

'Evans' humour seriously added to my enjoyment of her book. This, her first, as well as the rest in the series, are well written, with standout central characters and clever plots.' AUNT AGATHA'S BOOKSHOP, ANN ARBOUR, USA
