Chief Inspector Connor O'Neill and Detective Sergeant Fran Wilson, introduced in Death in the Country, return to investigate a murder in a sleepy country town. Not two weeks prior to the killing, a woman moved into town after serving a decade for murder. She would naturally be the prime suspect--especially since the body was dispatched in a similar way.

A collection of the looniest laws from the most unexpected countries. Revealing over 250 laws and rules, some current, some ancient, this book covers kissing on trains in France, wiggling while dancing in California and very odd Lithuanian laws concerning women drivers.

Kate Kinsella is still in the private inquiry business, but business being what it is, she also continues to work as a part-time RGN. So, working in the casualty department of Longborough General Hospital isn't out of the ordinary for her. What is different, though, is that she finds a client among her patients. Vanessa Wootten is a district nurse who checks herself into the hospital with the announcement that she's just taken an overdose. Nurse Wootten is also convinced that she's being followed by a man - a man with murderous intent. Everyone warns Kate to stay away: Vanessa is paranoid, Vanessa is neurotic, Vanessa is crazy. And Kate begins to think so, too, until one of Vanessa Wootten's patients is murdered. She knows her client didn't do it, and she knows that someone most definitely did. Now, who on her list of suspects would be capable of smothering an old lady lying helpless in bed?
