Murder by Mistake

LIBBY SARJEANT IS BACK

'Lesley Cookman is the Queen of Cosy Crime' PAUL MAGRS

'A real page turner' KATIE FFORDE

Libby Sarjeant returns to take on her latest case in this gripping and twisting whodunit from Lesley Cookman. Perfect for fans of Faith Martin, J. R. Ellis and LJ Ross.

Super-sleuth Libby Sarjeant returns with a baffling new case . . . two people missing in a single week.

When a homeless man from the old-fashioned English seaside town of Nethergate appears to go missing - and the police are not available to investigate - amateur detective Libby Sarjeant and her psychic friend Fran are called in to search for him.

But it seems the case might be far more complex than they anticipated - and when a second person disappears without trace, Libby suspects there must be a sinister connection between the two.

Following a murky trail to uncover the truth, Libby and Fran find themselves uncovering secrets hiding in plain sight.

Can they solve a puzzling mystery before anyone else suddenly vanishes?

Like many authors, Lesley started writing stories as a child. After a checquered beginning, including jobs as varied as actor, model, cabin crew and nightclub DJ, she fell into feature writing for publications including Business Matters, Which Computer and Poultry Farmers Weekly.

She progressed to short stories for the vibrant Women's magazine market and, following a Master's Degree where she met her publisher, she turned to her first literary love of Traditional British Mysteries. The Libby Sarjeant series is still going strong, and has been joined by The Alexandrians, an Edwardian mystery series.

Lesley also continues to work with her local theatre, which often finds its way into her books.
