A nagging cold case
A cast of suspects
Will Tiggy and Raider get too involved?
Mystery author Tiggy Jones has been asked to interview the locals for a collection of anecdotes about a once-grand house. But when she visits the derelict property early one evening, she sees a light in an upstairs window. Then a woman’s face. Just an opportunistic intruder?
The interviews begin and are quickly overwhelmed by an avalanche of superstitions and rumours. Clues and secrets from past and present become more and more entangled.
Eighteen years ago, the last owner fell down the back stairs to her death. Or was she pushed? The inquest was postponed without a conclusive finding and ever since, the house has been abandoned and allowed to crumble.
As Tiggy and her dog Raider are joined by their neurodiverse sidekick Baxter, they’re drawn into the cold case.
Will they finally solve an eighteen-year-old mystery and lay a ghost to rest?
Or is there a murderer at large who’ll do anything not to get caught?
Pre-order it now.
