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.

Anthea Fraser

Anthea Mary Fraser (born 1930) is a novelist. Her mother was a published novelist and Anthea began composing poems and stories before she could write. At the age of five she announced that she wanted to be an author. However, despite having been a prolific writer in school, she did not become a professional writer until after her two daughters were born.

Her first professional publications were short stories. Her first novel was published in 1970. Her first significant success was with her 1974 novel Laura Possessed, which had a paranormal theme, and was followed by 6 other similarly themed novels. She then wrote some romantic suspense stories before turning to writing crime fiction. She has created two mystery novel series, the first featuring 'Detective Chief Inspector David Webb' with the Shillingham police.

There are 16 novels in this series, the last twelve of which bear titles based on the lyrics to the traditional English folk song Green Grow the Rushes, O. The second series features 'Rona Parish', a biographer and freelance journalist. Anthea Fraser served as secretary of the Crime Writers' Association from 1986 to 1996. She has also published five novels under the pen name 'Vanessa Graham'.
