AN UNPUTDOWNABLE CRIME MYSTERY PERFECT FOR FANS OF RICHARD OSMAN.

Somewhere in the lush green grounds of a peaceful retirement home hides a serial killer.

Famous ex-ballet dancer and local celebrity Andrée Clark is found strangled in her bed at the genteel Rosemount Retirement Home. On the bedside table stands her favourite ballerina doll, its dainty arm pointed at the body.

Retired detective DS Noakes, now head of security at Rosemount, asks Detective Markham for his help.

A trail of mystery, stories and gossip followed the retirement home’s most famous denizen. The investigation brings up a list of suspects — from Andrée’s fellow residents to members of the local ballet company.

But before the team can make any headway, another victim is found murdered in the home’s gardens . . .

There’s a dangerous killer on the loose and something warns Markham that they’re not done yet.

With the murder count rapidly rising, DI Markham sets a trap. Can he catch the killer before yet another person pays the ultimate price?

WHAT READERS ARE SAYING ABOUT CATHERINE MOLONEY:

“Gripped from the start!” Curly

“A beautifully crafted book coming to a resolute finish.” Rob

“Utterly believable characters, beautifully described.” Jacqueline

Perfect for fans of Faith Martin, Frances Lloyd, Richard Osman, Merryn Allingham, Dee MacDonald and Sarah Yarwood-Lovett.

DISCOVER A BRILLIANT NEW BRITISH CRIME MYSTERY SERIES.

THE DETECTIVES
DI GILBERT (“GIL”) MARKHAM
DI Markham is a startlingly talented detective rising through the ranks of Bromgrove CID. He is distant and austere — the product of a profoundly difficult childhood — but has a natural magnetism which inspires loyalty. He clashes with his slippery boss, DCI Sidney, who prioritizes the force’s public image.

DS GEORGE (“NOAKESY”) NOAKES
DS Noakes is a slobbish, uncouth and outspoken Yorkshireman, an object of despair to his superiors. He is, however, also a man of hidden depths, with a sensitive streak and a secret flair for ballroom dancing. Markham sees through his philistinism and they form an unstoppable partnership.

Ditch Olivia!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 16 August 2022

Verified Purchase

No, I still don’t seem to have lost my pre-Raphaelite aversion! But I feel better having got that off my chest…this one is set at Noakes’ new place of work, which is a retirement home for aged ballerinas etc. Inmates are being murdered. The team (minus Noakes and plus Sidney’s nark) manage to solve this without Olivia, as she’s left Markham again. Quite gruesome.

Scraping the barrel?

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 30 August 2022

Verified Purchase

I've read and enjoyed a lot of books in this series, which has a lot of trademark features: a self-contained community, such as a school or (here) a retirement home, a bunch of suspects, all with motives, lashes of info about some niche subject, like church architecture or saints (here, the ballet), and an engineered denouement, where the detectives set up a trap for the killer. Perhaps I've just read too many, because this book just seemed to be going through the motions. The mystery wasn't even that good! Not sure I'll continue - UNLESS someone offs the irritating Olivia . . . now that WOULD be worth reading about!

Much better

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 12 March 2023

Verified Purchase

George Noakes may have retired but he cannot be kept out of the investigation when murder comes to the care home where he has just taken on the role of security manager. Annoyingly Olivia is making a comeback. I don't know what it is about her, but I cannot warm to her at all. Maybe it's that despite the fact she is older than Markham, she acts like a spoilt child!

Another great story

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 15 September 2022

Verified Purchase

Another great story in the Inspector Markham series which featured Blake's even though he had retired. Great story line with the usual strong characters and a twist or two along the way. Hope there will be more to come.
