<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong>A babbling brook runs alongside a wooded glade, surrounded by autumn light and birdsong. But next to the stream a young woman lies dead, her once bright blonde hair now limp and lifeless... </strong><br /> <br /> <strong>Melissa Craig</strong> has settled into a new job in the charming Cotswolds village of Upper Benbury. She is teaching French to several of the local teenagers, which gives her a fascinating insight into the young people's lives. Material for a new novel perhaps...<br /> <br /> <strong>Her quiet life is interrupted when she sees her new neighbour running out of the woods </strong>in a blind panic. Melissa rushes to help him, but what she finds leaves her breathless: <strong>the body of young woman is lying on the bank of the river. </strong><br /> <br /> When suspicion falls on Melissa's neighbour, <strong>a man with a difficult past trying to make a new start</strong>, Melissa feels determined to prove his innocence. With the village in turmoil, and the police sure they've got their man, <strong>she must act quickly.</strong> <br /> <br /> As she interviews the local residents, she realises there are <strong>several sinister characters lurking inside those charming Cotswold cottages... Could one of them have hurt Cissie?</strong> Was it the strange old man with a cottage near the river? Or the ailing ex-choirmaster with quite an eye for the ladies?<br /> <br /> When <strong>Melissa Craig</strong> decides to get her teeth into a case, she doesn't let go - nothing will stop her from solving this murder. <strong>Can she prove the innocence of her new friend? And will she unearth the culprit before another young life is taken? </strong><br /> <br /> <strong>An absolutely unputdownable murder mystery for fans of Faith Martin, Joy Ellis and P.D. James that will have you hooked right from the start. </strong><br /> <br /> This book was previously published as <em>The Man at the Window</em>.<br /> </p><p><strong>What readers are saying about Betty Rowlands: </strong><br /> '<strong>Hooked from the first pages</strong>... wonderful... fascinating, <strong> full of twists and turns</strong>...<strong> kept me guessing till the end</strong>.'
