‘Valerie Wolzien shows a nice writing style and considerable wit . . . She weaves a clean, believable, subtly humorous tale.’ Chicago Tribune
WHERE MANNERS MEET MURDER . . .
In a town of polished driveways, manicured lawns and country club terraces, trouble rarely bubbles. That is until the chairman of the fundraising committee is killed at a PTA luncheon. The first murder that Hancock, Connecticut, has seen in centuries.
Housewife Susan Henshaw does not mean to get involved. Years in Hancock have made her sensitive to the way committees work, friendships falter, and civility conceals more than it reveals. She knows this world inside out. When she sees what the police seem to miss – she’s unwilling to look away.
From a poisoned canapé to bodies discovered at parties, vacations and weddings, Susan’s ordinary life becomes an unlikely backdrop for extraordinary crimes.
Perfect for fans of Joanne Fluke, Robert Thorogood, Fiona Leitch, Peter Boland, Sarah Yarwood-Lovett, Richard Osman, and Dee MacDonald.
MEET SUSAN HENSHAW
Susan Henshaw is not a detective, and she never wanted to be one. She is a wife, a mother, and, more importantly, a long-term observer of suburban life. Living with her husband Jed, she balances domestic life with school events and committee duties. When murder intrudes on her home life and social calendar, Susan finds herself unable to stand aside.
THE SETTING
Hancock, Connecticut is a town of immaculate homes, tree-lined streets and carefully maintained routines. Life revolves around schools, clubs, social events and seasonal traditions. To the untrained eye, all seems as it should. But beneath the polished surfaces and polite conversations lie rivalries and quiet resentments. The perfect conditions for secrets to fester, and for murder to arrive where it is least expected.
