Produktbeschreibung
In London, journalist Isla Joyson races against time to find a connection between a drowned nun, a sinister convent, and a manipulative aristocrat. A perfect beach read for fans of the movie Saltburn and the novels of Ruth Ware and Lucy Foley. One call changes everything. When Isla Joyson receives a desperate call from a nun about an impending drug shipment, she sees a chance to break the story of the year. The Sister insists she can't go to the police and begs for Isla's help ... Then the line is cut. The next day, the nun's body is pulled from the Thames River. Pursuing both justice and the story, Isla's investigation leads from the cloistered order harboring dark secrets to the highest echelons of British society. When Isla crosses paths with a powerful duke intent on solving this murder without her, the stakes escalate, threatening to destroy both her career and her relationship with the man she loves.
Autorenporträt
Jody Brettkelly grew up in a tiny beach town in New Zealand. But instead of surfing she spent most days indoors, reading about murder most foul. After qualifying as a barrister, she decided to cross the courtroom to the press gallery and became a radio journalist. When she fumbled the word "hospital" five times, in the worst example of newsreading in the history of broadcasting, she took to print journalism. That proved to be her happy place and she worked in London for fifteen years as a journalist for national newspapers. Amazingly, considering hospitabitible-gate, she also appeared on television and radio. After moving to California, she worked for regional magazines and newspapers but now if she's not writing tales about curious women who just won't give up, she's enjoying outdoor adventures with her husband and four grown kids, taking each day, one (ish) aperol spritz at a time.
