About this ebook
Hours later he was found murdered.
The quaint English market town of Tollinghill isn’t quite as charming as it seems. Beneath the picturesque façade is a community caught up in jealousy, revenge and murder.
Through logical deduction and a keen eye for detail, amateur detective Kempston Hardwick begins to unravel the mystery. But not before a second murder takes place in Tollinghill — with the already-dead Oscar Whitehouse spotted at the scene, apparently alive and well.
Before long, Kempston realises he has more than just another conventional murder mystery on his hands. Can he uncover the secret of the Tollinghill murders — before it’s too late?
