When Charlotte rents a cottage from Edgar Frensham, she has more in mind than a quiet month in the country. But when Frensham's body is found, with a very suspicious suicide note nearby, and no gun in the room, she's faced with the problem of what to tell the police. All the neighbors seem charming and friendly, yet it's soon clear that one of them is a murderer. And Charlotte has no friends among them, except for a rather sketchy private investigator who keeps telling her lies.

3.5 STARS | This is the second title I've read by E.X. Ferrars and I'm very much enjoying her clean, unnecessarily-embellished style of writing. Violence is kept offstage or minimally described, though the crimes are taken quite seriously. I may have enjoyed my first read, Foot in the Grave, a tad more, but this one is very good indeed. All loose ends are cleanly tied at the conclusion.

A well written, easy read with many red herrings to keep one guessing. I did not tumble at all to the identity of the bank robbers.
