Meet Rona Parish, a talented biographer who has a skill for writing about the past and encountering danger along the way, and her adorable golden retriever, Gus.


A dark secret from the past brings danger to Rona Parish's door and those closest to her when she juggles two projects.

Rona Parish is finishing her single mother series in perfect style with an article on the enigmatic and talented Nicole Summers, an expert on all things culinary. Can Rona persuade Nicole to open up about her life? Before she can try, events take an astonishingly dark turn.

Appearances can be deceiving . . .

Meanwhile, Rona has been asked to finish the biography of TV presenter Gideon Ward. Acclaimed biographer Russell Page died suddenly in a car crash weeks ago, leaving the project unfinished. Curiously, it seems that Nicole was the ex-wife of a man who works for a hotel chain owned by Bruce Sedgwick, a person who seemed to be of great interest to Russell Page before his death. But why?

Is Rona too late to stop a killer in their tracks?

As Rona investigates, she learns that people are not always what they seem, with devastating consequences.

A page-turning cosy mystery set in the fictional English market town of Marsborough in the stunning Chiltern Hills.

Fans of M.C. Beaton, Richard Osman, Reverend Richard Coles, G.M. Malliet, Margery Allingham, Betty Rowlands and Faith Martin will love this series.
