A heartbreaking find amid secrets and lies. After enlisting the help of her sister-in-law in convincing Dotty Keogh's mother to look favourably on Matty as a son-in-law, Emma is back on the PS Mary B for the last trip of the season. The crew is looking forward to the summer break and Emma is happy to be spending the journey with her friend Hilda Zeller. Until they find Hilda's body in the woodpile, and her children alone at their shack. With their father nowhere to be found, taking the children on board is the only option. But as the journey to Echuca continues tempers begin to fray amidst suspicious accidents and falling river levels. Emma quickly discovers that while even the dead have secrets, it's dealing with the secrets of the living that's putting her on edge. Daniel is losing patience with the situation and with Emma while she tries to get answers, concerned about the children's future as well as the death of their mother. Are they all just tired of one another's company? Or is something more going on? When Emma's concern for the children brings her face to face with Hilda's killer has her understanding of the secret they are keeping come too late?
Autorenporträt
Irene is a retired historian living in Perth, Western Australia where she writes historical cozy mysteries. Under her pen name Rennae Todd she also writes modern cozies.Irene grew up on a vineyard and orange orchard in New South Wales by the Murray River, where she was an avid reader, and started writing stories when she was nine years old (including some really dreadful poetry). Now living in Western Australia, she has three children and four grandchildren, and a sister who beta reads her books for plot holes and to see how quickly she can solve the mystery (so far she's not winning). When not writing, Irene reads, watches tennis, plays croquet (old age and treachery will defeat youth and enthusiasm every time) and has a reasonably green thumb, which means very little dies in her garden, unlike in her cozy mysteries. Irene and Rennae share a website at https://irenesaumanauthor.com.
