Summary

The derelict house on the edge of the sleepy seaside town was a haven for courting couples, down-and-outs - and someone with altogether more sinister intentions. It was there that they found the corpse of 17-year-old Jenny Hyde. She'd been strangled.

Just discovered this writer!

Excellent story, lots of humour and marvellous narration. I’ll carry on through all the Maxwell series.

Good Mystery

Kept us guessing and well written. Conjures up the nineties authentically, including police corruption. Lots of swearing.
