No, what upset her most was the human skeleton she discovered there...So begins the second investigation for strait-laced Carole and her more laid-back neighbour Jude. This time their enquiries take them away from Fethering to the small download hamlet of Weldsham, where gossips quickly identify the corpse as Tamsin Lutteridge, a young woman who disappeared from the village months before...'Simon Brett has got into his stride with his second book in the "Fethering Mysteries" series...His light touch produces an enjoyable mystery.' - Susanna Yager, "Sunday Telegraph".
