Murder at Home by Faith Martin
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
All The Usual Motives
Flo Jenkins, a seventy something widow,living alone,is found sitting in her overheated parlor,with the lights and telly on. A bit unusual,this early on a cold wintry morning. A bit more unusual is the sharp bladed letter opener jutting out from her chest!
Hilary Greene and her team, including the soon to be married and soon to transfer,Janine; the ever lazy,gruff and negative,Frank; and a new Constable, transferred in from London ,after decking his last DS, Keith catch the case. Every clue and every suspect leads to a dead end, frustrating them all.
Only Frank seems to have no outside stresses. Hilary has started a relationship with Regis but isn't sure she wants one.In addition, her boss Danvers is making it hard to ignore his interest in her. Keith has the very natural stress of trying to figure out his place on the team in this rural backwater . And poor Janine has pre wedding jitters and a stalker who is sending her letters and vandalizing her car.
In other words, here is another complexing mystery being investigated by a group of very savvy and very human cops!
