    About this audiobook

    She was about twenty, with long blond hair, and her body was found a few days after she fell from the cliffs to her death on the rocks below. No one identified her; no one reported a missing girl. All the police knew was her rough age, that she'd had a child recently, and that she was very underweight.

    Her death was a mystery that had haunted Alan Nesbitt, Dorothy Martin's now-retired chief constable husband, since 1968. It didn't matter that the incident had happened more than thirty years earlier; under the pretence of a 'vacation' to Cornwall, Dorothy was going to get to the bottom of the mystery for Alan . . . and uncover a new one while she was at it.

      I have read these books as fast as I can find them. I love the elderly newlyweds solving mysteries together. Fun and easy to read.
